Sometimes you absolutely smash the ball, but right at a fielder for an inning ending DP
Sometimes you get beaten by pitch, you get enough bat on it for an infield single via a swinging bunt.
Sometimes the ball bounces off the bag.
Sometimes you smash the ball and the ball takes a bounce for a ground rule double and the man on 3rd has to hold.
Sometimes you hit the ball and it lands fair by inches, sometimes lands foul inches.
I am not saying it is 100% luck, absolutely not, but at least 70% of the game is luck.
So what you are doing is effectively gambling which team is going to be luckier on the night.
In a sport where their is no salary cap, teams in the modern era don't win B2Bs, no dynasties etc etc, really says something.
Look at the Red Sox, sure they are missing Ellsbury, but that is 1 player out of 10 in the lineup and they are 6 games UNDER .500 half way through the season. Can anyone imagine the Spurs being UNDER .500 halfway through next season, even if Duncan retires?
