    Just an excuse to show good-fielding SS's are rarer than even good-fielding 3b-men.

    I don't label you just a HOUSTON fan--although you should be embarrassed with their sickly record--so far.

    As I already said, it doesn't "mean nothing." It has an effect, and the magnitude of the effect can be adjusted by the user in League Settings.

    But, what's that have to do with anything in this thread?

    Well, see EVEN11323's post...but...um...are you upset at being "labeled" a "Cardinals fan"? Uh...not that I even "labeled" you as anything.

    He is not a Houston fan, he is a D-Backs fan. And wtf are you talking about?

    Either put the crack pipe down or go get one...whatever you haven't been doing to this point ain't working.

    It makes a small difference, just as the effect does in real life. Just because I can't measure it doesn't mean I can't tell between "doesn't exist, small effect, large effect'. I don't need a tape measure to know that a semi-truck is realitively huge and a Yugo is relatively small.

    lol, Cards..you're hilarious man. I hope you never stop being an extreme homer who constantly posts stuff about Albert Pujols and uses zero logic in all of his posts. I also hope you keep attacking HGM every chance you get with incorrect information and keep on assuming that every fan is responsible for their team's failures.

    Hrm, well as a Cubs fan I know this to be true. If I could only get my **** together my beloved Cubbies would've won at least a half dozen championships in my lifetime!
    I saw Andre Dawson. And let me tell you something. There were only two players in my lifetime whose teammates held them in awe. One was Mickey Mantle. The other was Andre Dawson. If you were around, if you saw them play, you know that. But the numbers don't tell you that.
