  • "Pace" is entirely useless until you've seen enough games. If you win you're first game, you're on pace to go undefeated. Right now Brian Roberts is the best hitter in the history of baseball, putting up .444 /.528/.933 -- and not a bit of cream or clear within reach!

  • No cream or clear, but he's definitely on something. Seriously!
