I suspect that if Dietrich were a Brewer the narrative would be quite starkly different.. 

Players aren’t dumb. They know how Dietrich watches his homeruns like he’s the god of all baseball players to ever play. It would be like a pitcher that starts break dancing on the mound for 15 seconds every time he strikes out a hitter. It’s just a tad in your face. They know that he crowds the plate that it’s hard to say that you’re throwing at him. He will eventually get beamed in the head or more likely get a teammate hurt by causing a fight.
