Stat of the day

[Carlos]

I was waiting for you to comment on him.

[Clay]

I was just reading back through this thread, and I'll be interested to see if this cycle is broken. It would be a stretch for Woodbury to win a Glove Wizard, but not impossible.

Stupid Lippincott!

Bummer.

Alright, we're at the top of a list! Oh wait.

Look at the bright side: no team with 5 playoff appearances has not won a BLB championship. Go 1989!

We're the Braves.

And.... Shannon's. He was literally percentage points away from the first ever Triple Crown season in BLB history.

Bleh, product of the times.

Re: Stat of the day

Jose Guzman's effort in '88 earned him all of 1 3rd place vote in the DL Stout Slugger race.

That would be me. I thought he was going to get a couple more though.

[Clay]

And.... Shannon's. He was literally percentage points away from the first ever Triple Crown season in BLB history.

Great season. No doubt. But I think he falls short of being in the conversation of the best ever. Less than 100 runs. His K/BB were almost dead even. Less than 80 walks. One steal attempt (caught).

I'd say a Top 10 season... but I'm not sure it even makes the Top 5.

That being said, he wins the Triple Crown and it's obviously the most unique accomplishment.

[Clay]

I think if you're talking best seasons ever for a Hitter in the BLB... you have to have Kellum (78) and Keppel (82 & 83) in the conversation.

I wish there was a utility that let you plug in numbers and see which guys match the criteria.

I'm interested in knowing how many guys have had Guzman's season:

100 BB
100 R
100 RBI
40 2B
10 SB
.300 AVG
.400 OBP

By the way, the answer is none.

But, you can grab stats from Campoveroe's '84 campaign and suggest it's better. I think it is.

[Clay]

Woodbury was 9 walks shy of doing it again this season.
