What is a productive at bat?
I'll give you a hint.
It either produces a base runner (you) without an out.
or
It moves a runner.
or
It scores a runner.
or
It drives pitch counts.
Yes, you can have a selfish quality at bat by definition and it can be non productive.
Productive at bats win games.
Check your ego at the door and be productive for your team.
Nobody cares what your exit velocity or launch angle is when you don't produce for the team.
The $1,500/month increase is the headline. The trap it created is the real story.
Nearly 60% of the 50.8 million active mortgages in the US carry rates below 4%. Those homeowners are functionally frozen. FHFA research found that each percentage point of rate lock-in reduces a homeowner’s probability of selling by 18%. When 30 million people can’t rationally sell, inventory stays crushed and prices stay elevated for everyone else.
So the system runs in a loop. High rates lock existing homeowners in place. Low inventory keeps prices high. High prices require even higher incomes to qualify. The typical household would need a 59% income increase to afford the median home.
The people who bought in 2021 got a lower payment and a moat. Everyone who didn’t is paying $1,500/month more for the privilege of living on the wrong side of it.
This is insane. To think about how much better the stuff is now compared to 2007. And then think about more pitches being called strikes. And thinking about how more pitches that are harder to hit in harder to hit locations are being called strikes …
And layer in analytics and how they know exactly how to get you out.
And guys are still having incredible success, is, almost impossible to believe.
