I miss the old days of reading box scores and stats in the paper, so I vibe-coded my own version. It's informed by sabermetrics but still focused on the basics. Just built it for me, but if you're interested: dastudes.github.io/daily/index....

In an odd reversal of form, Jon Stewart has become my least favorite Daily Show host.

That’s sort of a typical difference, isn’t it?

One of the best things you can do for yourself is recognize how easy it actually is for the typical resident of a rich country to do something meaningful to make the world a better place. www.slowboring.com/p/you-can-he...

You can help the poorest people in the world

There's something in it for you, too

Hey @nytimes.com balance sheets aren’t black or red, income statements are. You’re welcome.

I’ll did develop Loss Shares on his site but I don’t think he ever published them.

You know, bottom line, I think the main rub between Bill and WAR folks is the diff between average vs. zero baseline.

Then you should like xFIP, right? It’s basically K-BB plus flyball tendency.

Studes @studes.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

I created xFIP back in the day because I basically found that HR/FB tends to randomness…but not always, as you say. It’s a probabilistic thing and of course you can’t be 100% sure who it applies to or not.

Not too. I was probably too focused on the ten year thingie

I always think of Willie Mays when I think about someone who hung on too long. 1961 or '62 would have probably done it.

Over 20 years ago, I created a little website www.baseballgraphs.com for fun. It lead me into a ten-year rabbit hole of writing and opining about baseball for The Hardball Times (tht.fangraphs.com/author/studes/). Now I just sit and marvel at what was wrought.

So I suddenly have over 400 followers for no good reason. Are these all bots? Or is there some sort of automated thingie on bluesky?
