Yeah truthfully I don't have a problem at all with Verlander I just thought it would be funny to say Feh randomly at an otherwise feel good post.

(I don't care for Houston Verlander if I'm being honest.)

Chapo, he has now admitted it. We can no longer ever trust this man.

Not to belabor the point but this is a good example of why batting average is retarded.

Henderson in this game got on 4 times and scored 4 times, but because each plate appearance was a walk his batting average is .000 and if you went by his batting average it looks like he didn't do anything.

Meanwhile his OBP was 1.000 which is a much better reflection of the game he had.

I'd just like to say you're batting a thousand in this thread. :unsure

How many times does a game like that happen? Sure… great example for your argument but that is a one in a million game.

Nobody is saying that the stats you’re arguing are not important. Only that BA is more important than you are claiming.

What if he went 0-3 with a walk? That's a .000 BA but a .250 OBP. That's happened about a zillion times over the years and yet again shows why OBP is a very good stat and batting average is useless.
 


Well I guess that means the Rangers are giving up.

I don't know who else they would use. DeGrom pitched night before last and Eovaldi pitched today.
