He also had two 100+ OPS seasons, and his career OPS, while below league average, isn't nearly as embarrassing as it was when he also had his 23 year old, 300 PA, less than 80 OPS season.

From 24 to 28, Coco had his two .300 or near .300 seasons, one injury marred one and managed enough pop overall that he has raised his career OPS+ to 94. It may be that he won't equal his best two years in Cleveland but he's been a better player since that terrible OPS figure when he was 23. No one can imagine Melky turning into Beltran, but turning into Coco over the next four years would represent an improvement.
