Let me tell you a story about a man named Jed.
He could drive in a run like he’s hopping out of bed.
This song is based on Beverly Hillbillies.
But he’s straight out of The Walking Dead.
Everybody assumed Jed Lowrie was finished. The New York Mets signed him for two years and $20 million, and he only managed eight plate appearances for them due to injuries. Statcast’s underlying metrics agree that he indeed didn’t play very much in 2019-20.
But everybody forgot two things. The Mets are an embarrassment, and Lowrie only stays healthy when he’s on the Oakland A’s.
