I'm not familiar with the defensive efficiency stat. But like you said, it's six games. I'll start to worry if it's still the same case at thirty games.
OK, OK, I know that we're all guilty of overusing "the first sign of spring" thing. But here it is, the truly, TRULY, can't miss it sure thing first sign of spring.
Someone needs to design a sabermetrically-ready logo (similar to the /facepalm Picard-picture meme) that is the Superman-logo surrounded by two smaller Ss on either side. Then just post that instead of Picard and voila!
You have to use the "sss" phrase, or it doesn't count. Like it doesn't count if you say, "yeah let's go for it" when the Priest/Minister/Rabbi asks if you'll take her hand for better or worse etc.
Shoot – that single game with Ibanez in right was probably dropped the team 4 or 5 spots all by itself. Throw in Nunez, I'm surprised we got as high as last.
I did too! "Throw in Nunez, I'm surprised we got as high as last." was legitimately lol-worthy and one of the best pieces of snark I've read in months! Kudos!

Ready for it? Here it comes:
Small sample size.

David, the request has been recieved and our superhuman, behind-the-scenes, undercompensated design guy is on it.
DONE!!!!!
Love it!
Only got as far as "Mr. Incredibly Small", looked at the picture and thought to myself, "could be".
hahaha! Well, duh, Larry. I did say that in the first line.

David's gif idea is even better.
Okay. Got it. I'll add it to Jason's posting instructions manifesto.

I laughed.
