The question is

next year on MLB The Show, how do you rate a player who strikes out 200 times yet hits .280? He better be a monster.

Go DBacks!

Well,

how are Ryan Howard, Adam Dunn and David Wright ranked? He hits HRs and K’s like the first two, but steals bases like Wright.

Yeah

It probably makes me a super-nerd, but I’m really looking forward to seeing his numbers in various video games next year. It should be awesome.

Again, I’m on the outside looking in. I don’t even fit in with the nerd crowd. :-(

This is like

Always good for breaking up triple crowns.

Oh

So that’s why he should go back to Kentucky and raise horses.

I mean,

I guess a 1.618 OPS is pretty good.

My brother: Did you see the genre of this song [Wake Up by Arcade Fire]?
Me: Isn't it Alternative?
My brother: No, it was funeral. Most depressing thing ever. I s*** you not. Go look it up.
Me: ::checks iTunes:: That's the album title.

if you’re into that phony baloney new statistical analysis junk, i suppose. he did only have 10 rbi. not a REAL player of the week, if you ask me.

AKA

a single, a double, a home run, and reaching on an error?

Get over it! Mark is no Jayson Werth, Adrian Gonzalez, or Ryan Howard!
