At this point, you might be thinking, "probably park factors." My park factor for triples is .900, three of the other teams in my division have kept it at 1.000, and then the last team, my dude with the 30-win reliever, has a triples park factor of .500. Listen, I ain't complaining over that, but what on earth??

I've seen something similar a while back with Don Money. Guy would hit like 0 triples a season, then one year he hit 13. Never changed my park factors either.
Anecdotes that make you go "hmmmmmmm". There's been quite a few discussions about stat variance, but a guy with 10 speed and 18 baserunning getting 13 triples among many seasons of 0 or 1 triple, well...anywho...guess the RNG that distributes the stats to meet the quota decided to land on that card. Just like you I'm not complaining but...is that plausible ?
