I think home park or momentum or something must have a really strong effect on how well guys do. Because I had Gooden last year and I had to shaft him to long relief he was so putrid.
ReplyDeleteCecil Cooper might be leading the league in some sort of obscure GWRBI stat that matches total GWRBI to your at bats and your team's wins. He's got 7 GWRBI in my 68 wins: ~10%, but only has 5% of my team's ABs since he's a backup 1b/DH.
