Sep 12 2018
Last week, Fred Zinkie looked at some macro-level commonalities among this year’s biggest busts. It put us in a forgiving mood here at the Speculator. We'd like to hand out some mulligans this week to those who, frankly, stunk up the joint in 2018.
These are guys who sliced one into the woods this year; be it due to injury (especially the hidden ones), bad luck, or just a plain old off year. But they've parked plenty of drives down the fairway before, and could do so again in 2019 if we toss just 'em another ball.

With skills so bad, we can only speculate on an underlying injury. We hope we're wrong!
