I was going to say that it does make sense. Fans, media love the new shiny toy.

Yep Trevor Story was the rookie flavor of the early season last year. Add to it that it's the Yankees and voila media sensation. I hate the Yankees even more now that they just pull 2 rookie power hitters out of their butts with Sanchez last year and now Judge .

No different from last year.

 

Putting eggs in the wrong baskets there.

Whoa. Mets announce Jeurys Familia diagnosed w/ arterial clot in R shoulder. To see Dr. Thompson in St. Louis for tests & possible surgery.

 

At some point, it's not just bad luck with injuries, right?

This is totally random, and apropos of nothing, but is there any advanced stat that accounts for SBs when looking at a player's OPS? The way I'm thinking about it, if a player gets a single and then steals a base, that could be looked at as a double. Therefore, someone like Billy Hamilton, who is 19 for 21 in SB attempts, adds a net value of +17 once on base. So, while his normal OPS is a mediocre .671, his SB-adjusted OPS (SB differential + TBs / ABs) is a pretty solid .793. What do ya'll think?

That is interesting to think about. SBOPS?

A single + SB is not equal to a double, you can't score a runner from first on a single and a SB.
