Dude you’re so harsh on Gardner in your writing it’s almost intolerable.

In fairness, it was also an outlier in terms of his minor league numbers. Putting up one’s best numbers in one’s first real big-league season is atypical.

Neyer talked about Span's improvement last week and Span believes it is from LASIK surgery. Neyer/Span

also maybe if we trade for Span the Tigers win the Central and beat us in the ALDS. Boom! (?)

Last year was a career year for him.

Sure, it was also his first full year in the majors.

The guy just played his second season as a major leaguer.
When was not good?

The only image I have when I hear the name Denard Span is him misplaying that Gardner base hit last year, that lead to the inside-the-park’er.

It’s stupid, but that’s all I can envision.

I’m happy it didn’t go through…

Fallacy of the predetermined outcome.

But seriously, we very well may not have acquired Granderson and/or Javy if this deal did clear. It’s sick how The Ninja does all this without anyone knowing.
