My pondering of the day: if one adds sugar to sour cream, does it just become cream?

A website like Fangraphs or Baseball-Reference should be allowed to list the compiled MLB statistics on broken bats since they began compiling the info. Not sure when that project started. Player specific information could become a resource to baseball fans and collectors.

For instance, it would be interesting to know:

What player broke the most bats during the 2010 season?

Or, What game and inning each bat broke during a season?

Or, which pitcher causes the most bats to break in a season, or career?

Or, what batter's bat does a specific pitcher break the most during a season?

Or, who has the fewest bats break in a season?

All the possible questions answered by these compiled stats would be valuable to GU collectors and fans.

For now MLB doesn't permit public access to this gathered info. It would be interesting to parse.

OK if the FDA says small body parts from bugs have "nutritional value" would that mean a motorcylist that takes a road trip from Seattle, Washington to Ft.Walton Beach, Fla. without a helmet on would he pick up enough bugs to his daily nutritional value? just sayin`.

of those 133 3-0 counts, how many did he walk on 4 straight balls?
