All of those factors kind of go hand in hand. Bigger right center, apprehension at reaching across the plate to drive the outside pitch with power, and a slightly more pull-happy swing to compensate for both above. His single biggest strength nullified by elements in and out of his control.

Wright was always pretty good with the glove and at picking the ball, but it was always his arm that caused him issues. Never ever had any real zip on his throws, but he worked like a dog to get it about average in terms of accuracy and a bit below for strength. But as I stated before his charging was great as it…

I’d have to vote with Wright. Rolen’s injuries seem to pile up from use and abuse instead of come out of nowhere like Wright’s, and he won world series after beating the Mets in the NLCS.

You’re cherry picking a single stat and not taking in the entire picture. Jose Reyes and Carlos Beltran were better offensive players than Wright. And their defense was way ahead of Wright’s as well. oWar is “above replacement” and yes, compared to other thirdbasemen Wright was pretty dominant, but as pure total…

Hold up there, sonny. Maybe one of the five best thirdbasemen EVER? Should have won MVP in 2007 when his team collapsed? Two or three more healthy seasons and he would have a HoF argument? Those are all exceedingly optimistic at best and delusional at worst. And this is coming from a Mets fan.
He was a very good to…

NHL: Mike Needham. Had an inexplicably unstoppable slap shot in NHL ‘94

And now Enunwa’s out for the year.

The most surprising thing about his accomplishment is it’s the first time he’s hit 3 HRs in a game.

All little leaguers deserve a coach like you, Mr. Sandusky! 

Pretty sure someone was screaming that it’s “a man’s dog” not “a mad dog.”

What did bears do to ever deserve that?

You do realize that those two aren’t mutually exclusive, right?

o% chance those ribs weren’t ENDORSEMENT RIBS! Down with BIG RIB! Destroy the patriarchy!

In prep school our dorm’s annual end-of-year dinner was at an old, fantastic chinese buffet in Boston. Per ritual an eating contest was involved, and I ended up tying for the win by ingesting four completely covered 12" plates of crab rangoon, pork fried rice, sweet and sour chicken, spring rolls, peking duck and…

Only a small fragment sold. The size of the meteorite that hit the lady was over 6kg, and caused a large bruise which is seen in the photo (not a laceration).

Quin Snyder looks like Sarris from Galaxy Quest:

The only “flogging til sundown” reference I’m familiar with comes from Mel Gibson.

Obviously my sarcasm was lost on you even with the obnoxious “FACT!” tacked on....

Jesus wouldn’t want any mention of Jews on Good Friday - FACT!
