The Light Lash Conundrum

There are many things that have made my life difficult this fantasy season, but the most persistent is something I call the Light Lash Conundrum. In short, I try to be a fair and balanced in my drafting practices, giving equal opportunity to players of every hair color, but men with light colored hair have lashes that are difficult to see in photos, regardless of how full and lush they may be.

To fully assess the lash quality of a player, I ideally need a reasonably high-resolution picture of the player in profile, gently lit from behind or above. Like so:

  David Wright, 3B, New York Mets and Ryan Braun, OF, Milwaukee Brewers

There are two sets of baseball players that my method clearly disadvantages: 1. The not-often-photographed, and 2. The light lashed. Unfortunately for the brethren of the light lashes, it is much harder to highlight the glory of their lashes with a photograph. Where their dark-lashed brothers are able to display their lash prowess in less-than-ideal conditions, the light-lashed players look like they have bald lids. Hence the Light Lash Conundrum. For example:

  A.J. Burnett, SP, Pittsburgh Pirates and Hunter Pence, OF, San Franciso Giants

This year I watched several games with closeups of both Mr. Pence and Mr. Burnett and can confirm that they both have lovely, long, lush lashes. This is the injustice of blond hair, people. 

There's nothing I can really do about this, except for being as aware of this unfortunate bias as I manage my team. Any suggestions for balancing the Light Lash Conundrum?
