Fabio in the NBA

So it's early April and everyone is focused on recooping from the end of the tournament as well as enjoying the start of the baseball season and the glory of the Master's. Obviously then no one is concerning themselves about Charlotte Bobcats basketball but they are missing out on the emergance of a goofy white guy beginning to dominate. And it certainly is Dirty Sanchez Morrison, no it's some Argentine dude name Walter, Walter Hermann to be exact. I suggest clicking on that link so you can see his mug shot, super feminine. Since being thrust into the starting lineup early last week, Hermann has dropped 20+ in 5 of the 6 games and is averaging just under 20 per, 119/6, you do the math I feel lazy. If you think you've seen him somewhere it's probably cause he was a key cog in the Argentine Gold Medal winning squad in 2004. The NBA needs more white guys dropping 20+, but can we get a single American to do it, just one, is that too much to ask?

Over under on days before Danny Ainge gets wind of this and offers up a massive deal for a white guy.

And yes I just picked him up on my fantasy team just in time for the finals.

Numbers On Steroids: Mickey Mantle

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. This week it's throwing a curve ball and looking at All Time Great Yankees. Players that we know did not take steroids to see if this gives a defense to any of the players 'convicted' by Numbers on Steroids. Time to look at my dad's favorite athlete of all time, Mickey Mantle. Averages Say: What's with the mysterious dip at 27 and then the uptick? At Bats Per Home Run Says: That's a mighty jump from 22 to 24 Explaining As If It Was the 90s If you take a look at the numbers there are two time frames which in the 1990s would be questioned. First would be the incredible leap he took from his first year in the big leagues to his first MVP season in 1956. His batting average jumped 50 points. His slugging percentage jumped 90 points and he hit 15 more homers than his previous high. This wouldn't merrit a conviction nowadays though because the young age he...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
