During my Saturday evening of scrolling through Marlins Twitter, I was forced to revisit the saber nerd vs. diehard fan battle. The “diehard” fans were gushing over Adeiny Hechavarria’s recent hot streak, and proclaiming that the saber nerds shut their pessimistic mouths in regards to his skillset. The analytic channeling “saber nerd” fans on the other hand, cautioned that this hot streak was fueled by a high BABIP, and that Hech is bound to crash and burn down the road.
But really, Hech being good would be a lot of fun.
