Barry Bonds' "lousy" production goes to show how rare good players are, because he's still been better than most.
[2006-05-19]

  • "Lousy" Barry*

    The thing that continues to baffle me is why teams are so eager to walk Barry* rather than pitch to him.

    While today's column makes some good points, it overlooks this:

    On any given at-bat, he has a 76.7% chance of making an out.

    It makes no sense to walk him. Make him hit it.
