very unusual 10 games for 98 rickey henderson Topic

For my current OL team...

Over his past 10 games, henderson has 9 walks, 1 hbp, 6/6 steals and 6 runs. He also has exactly 1 hit in 37 ab.

162 games at that pace would yield 146 walks, 16 hbp, 97/97 steals and 97 runs...and 16 hits. A bit strange.

10 games is a horribly bad small sample size on which to base a projection...
There.  I said it. 
What is your malfunction?

Excuse me.  Was I being rude to you?

It seems you're taking my post out of context.  I wasn't passing it off as a statistically relevant sample.  In fact, my point wasn't about the projection, it was about the 10 games that had already occured.

Perhaps you would've liked this better:

A season with 162 games with 146 walks, 16 hbp, 97/97 steals and 97 runs...and 16 hits would be a bit strange.

Over 10 games, it would look like this:  9 walks, 1 hbp, 6/6 steals and 6 runs... and one hit.  This is what Henderson accomplished for me in his last 10 games, which I find a bit strange.

You offered the projected stat line, so he made a perfectly legitimate comment.  Your jumping on him was totally uncalled for.
I did not suggest that the projected stat line would actually occur over a 162 game season.  I was merely pointing out an odd 10-game occurance.

It's odd.  You win.
