I can understand if he didn't want to go to Norfolk, but it seems like it would be in his best interest. He's still young and has shown that he can be a valuable player. -
Unfortunately that’s where the sport is now. It’s all about who is healthy/available in October. It’s hard enough to answer that question 2 weeks from now never mind 4 months from now. I’ll take our chances will our pen if Burnes, Bradish and GRod are healthy and ready to go in October. Don’t need as much depth then. -

Because adding one hit isn't the same as saying "we don't have 15-20% of the box scores we need." Sure, that falls under the umbrella of "the statistical record is never closed" but if you're looking at everything from a 35,000 view, everything looks like an ant, too. -

You're right that population density doesn't equal skill level or athleticism. But are you more likely to be able to field, say, an NBA basketball team out of a group of 1,000,000 randomly selected people or 100,000? And assuming you can do it from both groups, which team is likely to be better? To believe the leagues were anywhere equal in talent level, you'd have to believe that blacks were many times better at baseball (on average) or many times more likely to try to make a career out of it. I see no evidence that this is the case. And to be crystal clear, I'm not saying the best Negro Leagues player was eight times worse than the best MLB player. I'm talking about groups, not individuals. Heck, Willie Mays was better at baseball than the overwhelming majority of humans of every race. -

Cowser to be on Foul Territory today. -

But it does make it less likely you are playing the same level of competition and thus the divide is even further in terms of saying the stats should count the same. Plus, what about things like official scorers? Was it regulated? I don’t know but how generous or strict were they for stuff like that? -

If the statistical record is never closed, what more do you need? If we look at statistics as numerical records of historical events, they are always updated when we have more information. We never have ALL the information, but we include as much as we have to the best of our ability. That is what this is an example of, including the information to the best of our ability.
