Is this all there is ?
|
Have all the interesting aspects of baseball been covered/discovered ? Here we get lots of "nuggets" usually paired with analysis consisting of "I have no idea what this means". There is even a full page color picture devoted to Brad Hawpe as clutch hitter of the year, a skill that James has (rightly) long contended doesn't really exist but is random chance. What the @$#* ?
Most of the tidbits sound like the meaningless stats based on tiny samples that are often quoted during telecasts featuring Tim McCarver.
While this may have been acceptable coming from the Hardball Times writers, for someone who has such brilliant previous writing to his credit, this can only be a major disappointment. |
