Singleton doesn’t seem to have Abreu’s bat speed problem.

[Overlord 366]

Somewhere right now Abreu is eating a baloney sandwich in a stinky locker room. 
 

With 40 million left on his contract

Hunter is really channeling his inner Verlander hard. 
 

He turned down two different balls. Like Verlander, he knew within seconds the ball just wasn’t right.

not all stats should be weighted the same, and some should carry no weight

Haha, look at that mother fucker bat flip!

[billfromlaketravis 11870]

I really wanted Seth Beer to work out for the jersey sales, but Cooks on number 10 jerseys works too. 

[Snake Diggity 4720]

Singleton has a 720 ops, huge exit velos, and healthy bb/k rate.  He should be playing almost everyday.  Tonight’s lineup is money.

At the tail end of our podcast I said basically Cleveland is the inverse of USA. Inverse records. Inverse luck. I’d be surprised if we don’t play much better ball than them over the last 135 games.

Memorial Day is when we usually know everything right? Isn’t that when the stats become a good predictor of everything the rest of the season?

or is it earlier in May?
