October brought us the truthers’ case against Stevie Wonder being blind.
It’s an interesting read and some of the points do at least make you bend an eyebrow. But at the end of the day, Mr. Wonder is probably blind.
Little did we know, until @Daniel_Doelling pointed it out on Twitter, that a much more interesting story was published nearly 2 years ago examining if Mark Reynolds was pulling a reverse-Wonder and playing baseball with 17 other men that were ocularally functional why Reynolds himself was blind.
Say what?

I clicked on the link and was surprised that it actually took me to a Baseball Prospectus page. Further, it had a byline from Sam Miller, the Editor-In-Chief of BP.
This wasn’t some Facebook clickbait, folks. You can read the whole article: LINK HERE
Mr. Miller does consistently good work, but this might be some of his best. He’s joking (for the most part), but by the end of the article you wonder – could Mark Reynolds actually be blind?
The Cardinals are on the hook for his 2M dollar contact in 2015, so you have to assume that management had addressed this before putting pen to paper. But what if they didn’t? Has anyone asked? Will one of STL’s intrepid reporters look into this for us?
(Spoiler: He’s not blind…)
