His first foray into TV was a reality show that trailed him for a few months...Life of Brian...it was insipid.

From your link, Wilson came off as a stupid jackass to me. His humor was humorless and contrived. He should make millions of $$ more.

Oh, he's most definitely being a jackass.

He's an ass whose career will blow up in his face this year...

Eat your heart out, Ricky Vaughn.

Performance-wise? You think? How so? (And I don't think that's heart that Vaughn's eating, Greg.)

Baseball is a very humbling game.

Wilson would never make in in NY with that act.

I'm picking up good vibrations from him.

Yeesh. He dresses up like a sea captain and does shtick for interviews. He's not making cameos on Gossip Girl, doing a reality show, or creating a Ryan Braun douchewear line.

I repeat, "not creating a... douchewear line."

He may be an ass, but he's an ass at the top of his profession at the moment, closing out three consecutive postseason series and amassing 127 saves over the past three seasons. More than a Kerfeld/Rocker, neither of whom ever saved the truly enormous games that this guy has.

He's good, and getting better. The walk rates have gone steadily downward and the strikeout rates steadily upward. He doesn't give up many HRs at all-- 0.51/9 IP for his career so far, with three of the last four years showing less than 0.4/9 (his one "bad" year came with a weird, solitary spike in HR rate). So, yeah, the sub-2 ERA isn't fielding-dependent at all, really; he'd do almost as well playing with 1 OF, 1 IF, and a catcher.
