    Why? For not overpaying a slightly above average hitter like he is an elite player?

    Because you have to be an elite hitter to be an elite player. Hmmmm.

    I know right. Hitting 4th or 5th for the best team in baseball? Not even remotely imaginable.

    You can really tell from that cover photo just how much Heyward hates baseball. That joyless look in his eyes is very telling.

    Good for him, he's a good player on an amazing team. If we had that great of a team around him, we'd have kept him.

    Wait - don't the same statheads that tell us Heyward is an elite player tell us that Wins are useless as a means of measuring Pitcher performance?

    Can't have it both ways.
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?

    Yes. Then if a player sucks for the first half of the season, it's "sample size." If the same sacred cow player has a good second half, then there's no mention of sample size.
