Walk in the park (April 11, 2004)

If you’re a Red Sox fan who’s wondering why the hell Mark Bellhorn is on the team, this article may help. His unintentional walk percentage is tenth in MLB; if he could hit, he’d be dangerous. Doesn’t make him a starter (unless, say, Nomar’s on the DL) but it explains why he’s out there right now.

Fun article. What really jumps out at me is that Bonds walks .286, so all else being equal he could get zero hits and still be a major league player.
