nahh... I just bet on realistic possibilities. To me, him having a .300 OBP and a .400 SLG is realistic considering he's shown more power in recent years. Also remember, I never said Kozma WOULD ops over .750. I said I would be happy if he did, which are two different things.

I agree that you "being happy with" something and the wager prop are two different things. But saying "you'd be happy" with that .750 OPS is an odd statement, and that is why you are getting called out to some extent. Where did that .750 number come from?
You should be absolutely elated if he posts a .700 OPS with adequate defense.

Alright, I'm going full throttle here:
I will be happy if Matt Holliday hits 50 home runs and OPS's over 1.100. Bam! There you go, internet forums banter/hype!
Let's be honest here. Look at the context of your post.
When you said you'd be "happy with a .750 OPS and adequate defense", you were suggesting that Kozma didn't really have to play up to his potential to be decent, and that even hitting a .750 OPS would be aceptable. You clearly were suggesting that a .750 OPS was on the low end of what he was likely to do, but that was OK.
