and I agree with you on Binds..
and as small as a sample size as it was tonight...0-4 when a game mattered...maybe he'll go 4-4 with 2HR tomorrow and show me  |
i didnt check who the pitchers were but most pitchers are pretty particular about keeping their era in check and not groove fastballs..certain veterans perhaps..
if go to arbitration and a reliever says 'yeah i gave up 5 homers late in games but 1 was to pujols, wink wink'' then ill believe they just grooving fastballs.
end of year usually have bad relievers filling up innings as well, larger rosters etc..last day of year was a lot of big games by not big time hitters for the time...small sample..but just saying
