So recently, Milwaukee Brewers star outfielder Christian Yelich posed nude for the ESPN Magazine Body Issue, which is an annual thing (well, not Yelich posing, but for the magazine).
Pro athletes do this all the time, and you don't actually see their private parts in the photos.
But that didn't stop a disappointed fan from questioning why Yelich did the photo shoot to begin with, to which Yelich responded very calmly:

If you have watched Yelich at all, you would know he is one of the most laid-back players in the league, so his incredibly sedated reply to the fan's message is not at all surprising.
Christian Yelich is in the middle of yet another spectacular season, as he currently owns a slash line of .332/.426/.679 with 41 home runs, 89 RBI and 25 stolen bases over 524 plate appearances, making the All-Star team as a result.
The 27-year-old is in his second season with the Brewers, the first of which ended in Yelich earning the National League MVP award after slashing .326/.402/.598 with 36 long balls, 110 RBI and 22 stolen bases across 651 trips to the dish.
Yelich was originally selected by the Florida Marlins in the first round (23rd pick overall) of the 2010 MLB Draft. He made his big-league debut in 2013, slashing .288/.370/.396 with four dingers and 16 RBI through 273 plate appearances.
He went on to spent the first five years of his career with the Marlins, with his best season in South Beach coming in 2016 when he slashed .298/.376/.483 with 21 homers, 38 doubles and 98 RBI over 659 trips to the plate.
While Yelich was a really good player during his time with the Marlins, he never really flourished until after being traded to Milwaukee in January 2018.
