Fuld is fascinated by what the numbers tell him about the concept of clutch hitters. "Most of the numbers out there show that there's no such thing," Fuld said. "And it's crazy to think that, because I swear I've played with guys who just tend to come through in the clutch. And others that don't. "But that's the beauty of numbers is that our minds don't necessarily capture the whole picture accurately. Our emotions remember certain things for whatever reason, and there are certain things you don't remember. So I think that's the beauty of numbers. It's fact. There's no way around it." I ran across this article on rays.mlb.com today, but it's been up for a while. A very interesting read, especially for those not aware yet that Fuld is in fact Super Sabermetician Sam Fuld.
