FG: Confirmation Biases and Cliff Lee
Eric Seidman talks about folks assuming a Cliff Lee will regress to being a sub-par player again, and jumping on a bad first couple starts as being confirmation of bias.
I've seen a lot of people sticking to their guns on this.
Lee's line at this point: 8 GS, 54 IP, 3.00 ERA, 3.17 FIP, 7.0 K/9, 2.2 BB/9
That's good for a 1.7 WAR. He's still good.

I have Kazmir too
On a side note, I have to figure out a way to arrange for Philkid to have an “accident” and “trade” for Longoria and Pujols.
