YES and also if a player is missing a triple (even if they have the homer, single, and double) I completely write them off and become fully convinced that they have 0 chance of hitting for the cycle that game

If they don’t have a triple in their career (not counting fast kids with less than 3 years in the majors) their chances of hitting for the cycle when ALL they need is the triple, even with 3+ at bats, is like 0.1% tops. “A triple shy of the cycle” is just a joke even for the players who regularly (relatively) hit triples

Honestly that’s still way too generous, 0.1% is probably the chance for players who DO hit triples regularly if all they need is the triple, really I need the in depth stat breakdown on how often anybody hits triples (ballpark also matters) bc even still I feel like 75%+ of triples SHOULD be errors, except if they don’t touch it it’s ‘not an error’ for some reason even if it’s a miss play
