I've probably jinxed him. Four walks tonight?

He has zero walks on his card, right? If so in reality he has only 60 rolls (on pitcher cards) that he has not earned a walk, surprising but not crazy, right?

Yes, no walks on the card. So not entirely surprising. I'm curious to see how long it goes., so will update here. I actually like the card for lefty-tilted pitching divisions. Lots of hits, but slow as a slug, though.

152 and counting.....

Sounds like my high school career...

163 now....

even guys with no walks on their card will still walk 20+ times a year, so it is a pretty amazing streak.

It came to an end last night.

In game 54, after 170 at bats, Meyers took a walk off of J. Klippstein on a 4-7 roll in the top of the third inning. He was then bunted over to second by pitcher John Candelaria. Meyers scored on a double by Kenny Lofton.

Chief actually then got another walk in the game, this time on a 5-8 roll off of Dale Murray in the 8th inning.

He still has an excellent chance to establish his all time worst which is 2 walks in 199 AB (1%). Now that was in a 140M league where you would expect better pitchers.
In a 100M league his worst is 5 walks in 267 AB (1.9%).
Let's say a minimum of 400 AB is required for his "record". In a 100M league that would be 14 walks in 592 AB (2.4%).
His all time worst is 9 walks in 592 AB in a 140M league (1.6%).
His average in 100M leagues is 5.5%
Go for it, Chief!

I'm rooting for him!
