Do not read this article by Mike Lupica.

I thought numerology, bad puns, and stupid pop culture references were the lowest of the low. Now Lupica is comparing ballplayers based on biological data:

"He is nine inches taller than the late, great Joe Morgan. He is nearly a foot taller than Jose Altuve. Rogers Hornsby was 5-foot-11. Robinson CanĂ³, whom we thought was on his way to the Hall of Fame once, is 6 feet. Bill Mazeroski was 5-foot-11, and Nellie Fox was 5-foot-10. Jackie Robinson was 5-foot-11. Robbie Alomar was 6 feet. Jeff Kent was 6-foot-1. I am probably excluding other star second basemen. But you get the idea."

You have lost your mind.
