I'd like to throw out my feeling on peds with a visual.
We have all watched full seasons of our favorite teams and players, for years. Think about how many balls are caught on the warning track as the fans sigh. Then think how a stronger healthier player with peds is adding 3 feet to all those warning track outs. How many times did Cal Raleigh fly out to the track this year?

The fans who enjoy stats now have to deal with all the screwed up numbers. Sammy Sosa hit 60 homeruns 3 years. Was Sosa greater than Ruth, Aaron, Maris, Judge, etc.?

Peds messed up the sport and it's history,
Vinny
