    To people who know the history of baseball, sure...

    But to everybody else, they're just as shiny as the other 25...

    And there are some parallels...free agency was relatively new to baseball during that time, and the Yankees scouting/farm system wasn't what it had been... Steinbrenner used the system to build a team quickly...just like we (hopefully) have...

    This would make a great thread on it's own.

    That's not "manipulating".  That's a known weakness of any statistical sample: you can't build a model if there aren't enough data points. 

    And I think most major conferences have better things to do than sit around and tweak their scheduling just to manipulate certain statistical metrics.  Getting a little bit into tin foil hat territory with that one.

    If he can't get the movement back he's of no use to us and I hope Jed doesn't wait until July to make moves we need soon like another starter and some bullpen help....otherwise all the pressure is on the offense.

    Lots of ball to be played.
