Around SBN: SB Nation NFL Power Rankings for Week 11

Bill James says that "The Next Fernando Valenzuela" is for real

Hi folks,

This is a clip of a young man who had a 300/0 strikout walk ratio in the Mexican League......No im kidding. It is actually a funny animation that I made. Forgive me, I just read the disclaimer about the sabermetrics blog..... and I agreed to it. I will also say that i do plan on actively participating in this blog. But this is "me introducing myself"......In all sincerity, I am an absolute baseball nut who is fascinated with the math behind baseball.

The Next Fernando Valenzuela (part 1)

The Next Fernando Valenzuela (part 2)

Thank you for letting me bend the rules a bit!- Merrill Kazanjian
