The object of the game is to score runs. Some guys are better at knocking in baserunners than other guys. There's a lot more evidence supporting this fact than the converse.

Having read enough on the topic, both pro and con, I couldn't disagree more.

People who de-value all stats in favor of simple on-base percentage are missing a chromosome.

This doesn't make sense. RISP average doesn't credit or discredit when nobody's on base. It is a measure of what happens only when runners are in scoring position. It's a simple stat that shows Drew consistently hits worse when the team needs it most.

Drew doesn't have the passion to stay in the lineup when he's nicked. Most guys do, but he doesn't. Notwithstanding his fragility, he just doesn't perform very well when he's in. A .250 batting average? Pathetic RISP average? Yeah, he works a walk better than average, but so do dozens of other mediocre ballplayers. Big deal. There's really not much to debate here. The numbers don't lie. When his contract is up two and a half years from now, Theo will make similar comments as he made with Lugo. He didn't perform the way we expected when we signed him.

Don't we all. Unfortunately, the Yanks won't be throwing him the batting practice he saw tonight from Cecil.

Pink hat?

Been there done that. RBI snobs don't listen. That's why they love loser players like Drew.

Thank you.

That's a fallacy.

LOL - hardly. Just a realist when it comes to the suckiest 14 million player on the planet.

Nancy Drew hit a couple of meatballs out.

If Federer can't even beat Nadal, how could he think he could have beaten Laver, Borg, McInroe or Lendl?

Is it 13-7?
