Talk about counting numbers. Take a day off.


EDITED TO ADD: Baseball is ALL about the numbers. When Aaron was sitting on 714, did you happen to see the crowd? Or Maris when he hit 61. Or Ricky when he broke the all time steals record. I don't think you are going to see anyone in the stands on the last day of the season watching the WAR numbers. I watch and see baseball with my eyes, not a calculator!

Not to mention most of Trout numbers are done in meaningless games. Arn't you the same guy who criticized Kershaw's post season numbers. At least he's been in more than 3 playoffs losses Mr Wonderful has been. Hopefully now that he is the 2nd best player on his team the Angels could have their 2nd meaningful September in the last 20 years, so we can see what he can do when the pressure is on. If he's not on DL, yet again.
What is your beloved Ted Williams' post season record? .200 and 1 RBI in one series. Sounds a bit like Trout? My point on Kershaw is that he has a substantial enough post-season record that one can fairly judge his performance, at this point it's beyond small sample size, and there is no question there is a big drop-off from his regular season performance. It's no more Trout's fault that he's played for non-winning teams than it was Ted's.
