Since I’ve been cautioning everyone about getting too overly excited about Yasiel Puig — at least until he’s hitting better than Brian Barden is — I suppose I need to reign it in a bit about how much Hanley Ramirez has been tearing the cover off the ball in the World Baseball Classic. After all, small sample size, varying opposition, blerp blop bleep.
But then he has to go and not only murder a baseball well into the night like he did just now, he also then stares at it, walks down the line, and throws in a bat flip for good measure? Well, if he’s going to do that… this could just be a really, really fun season.
