Rick Dempsey's Hyperbole-of-the-Night

[atomic]

If you won a WS MVP for a team, you've earned the right to refer to them as "we" in any and every context.

Good point. Plus I prefer Dempsey using "we" over Cal being a Yankees fan and saying Beltre is better than Brooks.

Boom! sorry Cal

Good bump!

I hope you're exaggerating for effect. Because there's ZERO reason to think that a 26-year-old with a .776 career OPS and a 5:1 K:BB ratio is going to OPS 1.500 over any extended period. Babe Ruth never had a season within 150 points of Davis' OPS over the past week. On the other hand, David Newhan once OPS'd 1.500 over a week (happened to be his first week with the Orioles).

Perfect example of why one should not use absolutes like zero.

Oh dear Drungo.... oh dear sad poor Drungo...

Hey! Davis is not OPSing 1.500!

If you make 100 hyperbolic statements and you get one right, it does not make you a great analyst suddenly.

Reimold could get hot and hit 40 bombs. Then he'd be a great analyst!

Rick Dempsey needs to start a 900 number psychic line.

A broken watch.....

A blind squirrel.....

You get the idea.

Well, he's not OPS'ing over 1.500.... so, not really as it were.
