Jersey numbers, big homer totals, and an obscure deep dive

Some journeys were never meant to happen.But as winter slogs along in the anxious anticipation for spring training, your baseball mind can sometimes take you to strange places.At the core of baseball are numbers, stats, and records.It can feel like an endless pit if you aren't too careful.I've come to the conclusion that the combination of Google and baseball numbers is a blessing and a curse, which now that I think about it, is hardly a conclusion at all.
