Another HUGE thing you and others seem to overlook. In my very first post I clearly stated my reason was "beyond silly". How do you argue against that?  |
Ben- I don't think your reason is 'beyond silly', though perhaps stubborn...and we all do that.
As far as comparing BAs from different ERAs, even short ERAs, it goes against your believe as the earlier ERA's BAs (1988-1992) were in the 250s, while the later ERA's BAs (1993-2008) were all in the 260s...except for dipping to .259 one season.
So...there...BAs from different ERAs can be used in the same argument.
Now,
THAT's 'beyond silly'!
