Why he might be annoying:

    His nickname is 'Carita,' which translates to 'Babyface.'
    His youthful appearance led to people online making remarks comparing him to a '12 year old hitting home runs on a school night.'
    His health came into question during the 2021 playoffs as he was dropping his bats frequently, which caused speculation of him playing through an arm injury.
    He was prone to making defensive errors on routine plays.
    He routinely ate at Chipotle Mexican Grill during his first few seasons in the majors, before hiring a nutritionist.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was considered one of the top left-handed hitters available on the international market at the time of his signing with the Red Sox.
    His performance in the minors was considered strong enough for the team to release Pablo Sandoval at mid-season in order to make room for him (2017).
    He is the sixth player in MLB history to record a post-season home run before his 21st birthday.
    He was considered one of the key contributing players in the Red Sox 2018 World Series championship season.
    He, along with Xander Bogaerts, are the fourth shortstop/third baseman duo in major league history to win the Silver Slugger Award in the same season (2021).
