    It's this.

    A look into his rate stats doesn't show anything out of the ordinary to where he's getting some kind of huge boost from his cheating.

    Got a good chuckle out of this. I was always hoping Lackey would get busted or hit by a bus or something.

    It was probably both. BABIP insanity explains his higher average, juicing explains his increased power.

    Walker = dislocated finger. That's good news, I think. If he hurt his wrist then he'd be fucked. And the Pirates would be, too, as the dropoff from Walker to the next best player is very steep.

    Check his ISO power. An increase in power doesn't necessarily just mean more homers, especially playing in SF.

    Cry me a fucking river. Ya, if only Bruce didn't get picked off they'd have the best record in the league...

    Sigh, too bad Cutch isn't roided up. His wrist quickness is Bonds/ Sheffield level. If he packed on 30 pounds of muscle .... yikes.

    It doesn't really explain anything until we know what he was taking, and how much that substance actually effects power

    1st Place, Melky gets the banhammer, and my favorite non-Dodger pitches a perfecto. Not a bad day.

    It was a very weird game for Kersh. He pounded the zone (0BB's, 8K's) and had some lockdown innings, but he also gave up 1HR and I think 4 doubles, as well as a lot of fly balls to the track. The Pirates when they made contact really squared the ball up well, but some of that comes from having a big lead, and not nibbling. Ohh well, enough analyzing, a win's a win.
