The @BuffaloBills just played an entire first half and did not have a running back rushing attempt. Not one. First time in 30 years that has happened. Some more genius analytic idea most likely.

Rockies hitting coach Dave Magadan to Baseball HOF magazine: "10 to 15 years ago you started getting self-proclaimed hitting experts taking money from parents and teaching improper mechanics, trying to get 10- to 12-year-olds to swing up. There's zero adjustability in the swing."

The greatest trick the nerds ever pulled was convincing people innings don't matter.

Starter Max Scherzer got a dead arm after pitching in relief for the first time.
Reliever Joe Kelly got a dead arm after starting a game for the first time.
And to think, the spreadsheet said it was a great idea 🙄

This bears repeating after every self centered stupid thing Rob Manfred does. The worst single event over the last 40 years in MLB history is the passing of Bart Giamatti. There’s no Bud Selig. There’s no Manfred. There’s no Don Fehr or Tony Clark. And no nerds. Just the game.

So in the 2 games I watched this evening, the Tigers won on a hit by Miguel Cabrera that basically had a 0% hit probability and the Pirates just won a game in which they basically had a 0% win probability.
That's baseball!

How's this for baseball metrics:
Joey Gallo, two HRs = 905 feet
Tigers four singles in a three-run seventh = 613 feet.

Gabby Kernan is right!
Baseball’s players have never been more skilled, yet never been worse at actually playing the game.
And, incredibly given it’s 152 uninterrupted years of morons running the sport, baseball’s leadership has never been worse at managing this best of sports.

Problem is that the young so called scouts can’t fake a conversation with the old guys. So they started their own language to make them seem like they know what they’re talking about. They need machines & computers to try & identify players value. The old scouts are the machines
