Avila career
.252/.348/.763
if he could just do that this year I will be happy!
I am not going to continue this. It is all about which sample you choose. And for some, they will always hate Avila and always use the sample that makes their argument, which you are doing right now.
If a player starts the season hitting .182 after 17 games, when do you stop getting on his case? Victor did just that last year. Now Avila is no Victor, but the principles are the same.

I don't see a problem with that.
Problem is, he has only matched or exceeded those totals in just one of his 5 big league seasons. Let's be honest, without 2011, his career numbers are pretty awful.
The problem is so many think a catcher should hit like Joe Mauer. Pudge being here for so long got people used to a C being a superstar.
