Phenomenal.

2006 was his worst year, and yet he was incredibly lucky. Wonder how bad it could have been. Or how good the past two years could have been.

'tis better to be lucky than good

so they say

"If Bowden was a general contractor, he'd build houses with nine bedrooms, six garages, no bathrooms, and half a roof."

Which contributed to a low BABIP.

When they hit him, they hit him hard.
