Cabrera had a rather miniscule .657 OPS to begin with. Now he's not even 100% by everyone's admission, and as of a day ago, was being contemplated replacing him on the roster. Throw in air-mailing routine throws to first, and it's just common sense that he should not be starting tonight. I just don't know how that can be argued.

All models are wrong. Some of them are useful.

I'm so sick of hearing about post-season experience. Talent trumps experience.
Did that one hit Utley?
Hope isn't a strategy

Wow, I'm actually impressed with TBS. They actually called out all the mistakes the umpires made with Utley.
