Chalking it up to bad luck, I figured next season will prove better....I started 2-9. I deactivated him and sold him to the next unexpecting soul. I put Machado, an obvious statistical downgrade in at 3rd and have now gone 10-5 in my last 15. I know it's a small sample size, but how big of a dick must Heinie be in the clubhouse and dugout to make a strong playoff team go 2-24?

You said it: small sample size. The correct sample size is 3000 at bats. And Heinie is way better than Manny if EYE/POWER/CONTACT have any meaning. Nevertheless good luck to you with manny
