Upon Further Review

I definitely shouldn’t write at 3 in the morning. Or I shouldn’t have written this, anyway.

↵Erasmo Ramirez is, of course, not a “little lefty” at all; in fact he’s a right-handed pitcher. Which I did know, before midnight. In fact, that’s sort of the point: when players are shorter than their listed height, they’re usually right-handers because baseball, for some reason, doesn’t mind short(er) lefties as much.

↵Also, the Mariners’ media guide (and their website) does list Ramirez as being 5’11”, not the six feet even I found on the Internet. (My guess is still 5’10” in bare feet, but potato potahto and all that).

↵Many thanks to the M’s p.r. people for pointing out my shoddy work.
