The unfortunate thing about “chaos” is that everything eventually regresses to the norm. You can get a bunch of blips in every direction, and maybe they average out to an end result that resembles something normal. But as you accrue data points, blips become less and less likely. That’s why they’re blips, after all.
The past couple of games have seen the Mariners regress to the norm, in a sense. You can only score so many runs when nobody outside of your top three hitters is running a positive offensive value on the year.
Right?
I guess there are no hard-and-fast rules for when regression has to come.
