In response to a chart showing essentially zero correlation between spring-training and regular-season records over the last eight years -- which contradicts earlier research, by the way -- McCovey Chronicles responds with this:
Giants Shouldn’t Mess With Spring Training Success

↵Not like you didn't know this, but at least you have a link to send people who claim that spring training records don't mean anything. The Giants had the best record last spring, and they won the World Series! Obviously it means something.
↵I didn't read the article, but the graph has a lot of dots. I'm sure they support the idea that if you don't do well in spring training, you lose during the season too. This is why my post today will be about stretching Lincecum, Cain, and Bumgarner out to seven or eight innings in every spring start. No mercy!

This is why we keep reading, even if we don't particularly care about the Gigantes.
