Nelson Cruz is one of those guys that NOBODY Leaves The Room To Grab A Beer Or To Take A Leak when it's his turn to hit. This is a new SABR-STAT that I just invented....NLTRTGABOTTAL and it really is the most important Sabrstat of them all.

He was just starting to fade when he signed with the Twins and as it turns out he's even better for them than he was with us. How the hell is he doing it? I know he popped on a piss test a long time ago, maybe he's doing PEDs again and beating the tests, who knows. If he's clean he's just amazing.

Maybe one of the people on his medical staff is Lance Armstrong?

…..and Rocky Colavito! :) , back in an earlier day...
Well, at least I never left a room to grab a beer when he came to bat. Yeah?!? So what if I was 8 years old.
Rocky Colavito is a Hall of Famer in my book!

Apparently, he's one of the many MLB players who seem to have been afflicted with PMRS (Post Mariner Rejuvination Syndrome).
