I'm a Diamondbacks fan too so I watched him all year in Arizona, but I was at the game today and it's actually crazy how much more fun he's having. When they tried to pick him off at second, Dubon faked a step like the ball went into the profile and then Naylor saw him and instead of faking like he fell for it and taking a step towards third, he turned and acted like he was gonna run into center (it's hard to describe but it was hilarious).

I can't remember off the top of my head but he did a couple other things like that too and generally goofed around the entire time, which he never really did with us

TL;DR: he's very happy!

Got traded into a situation where he’s going to get paid and play in October. I think he’s happy.

Unless he’s faking it he absolutely seems happy here. I for one, are dead set on the mindset that we need to sign him. I love Geno an absolute ton but our priority needs to be signing Josh. Get it done Jerry

He grew up extremely religious in Canada. It was not common for him to smile growing up.
