BLOPIP.

Bad Luck On Players In Play.

Not to be confused with BLOBIP.

Bad Luck On Balls In Play.

However, you could be suffering from BLOBPIP.

Bad Luck On Biogenesis Players In Play.

Sucks if you haven't purged that last one...

A Yahoo user's take on Starlin Castro...

"Except for that part where he's posted a .322 wOBA over the past 30 days (with a totally sustainable .318 BABIP, a touch below his career average), his ISO is the 5th highest amongst all shortstops over that time frame, and both ZiPS and Steamer have him projected for a .317 wOBA over the remainder of the season. You can certainly do far worse than that, especially at SS."


But can he hit the curve ball?
