Cole Hamels, who throws a fastball/cutter/change/curve, is starting for Texas today. Since this is a young season, we'll use 2016 numbers, and they don't look nice for Twins pitcher Hector Santiago. But there's something awesome about these numbers anyhoo ...
That's right, bitches, we gots a Colorful Chart! (Saw the idea on Royals Review years ago, only trying it now. If it looks like ass on your phone/computer, let me know. Or don't, and let me have my small moment of chart glory.)
So Hector was bad last year. But, colors! Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void. He's been better this year. So far.
This is a list of Cole Hamels's favorite things:
Side dish: Me slaw
Jazz artist: John Metraine
Old rock song: Workin' In a Me Mine
Star Trek actress: Nichelle NiMes
TV show: Meumbo
Medical procedure: Meonoscopy
Classic American songwriter: George Gershwin, because Cole Hamels is never predictable.
