Any questions, please let me know and I'd love to answer!

Currently working on a machine learning MLB probability model, essentially to help project MLB opportunity and/or success w/ other factors

Fine tuning it and good bit of a ways to go, but initially it has #Tigers C Manuel Bolivar as a 92% chance & 67% chance at 1x All-Star

@ScottUpham @IYKbaseball If McKinstry is getting 300+ PA sure it’s and issue, he’ll likely see 150+ if that. He’s a gold glove caliber defender, great on the bases. The bat sure it’s an issue, but no one else available to take the UTL spot

[Path to Tigers Analytics @TigersFarmData]

@ScottUpham @IYKbaseball I mean Max has a ton of concerns in his profile. He can’t hit velocity, struggle vs RHP, is a 2B only

[Tigers ML Report @tigersMLreport]

Zyhir Hope smokes a 109-MPH single to right for his first hit of the AFL season.

@ScottUpham @IYKbaseball Anderson and ZMac aren’t comparable. A OF with a plus GG caliber glove and great base running, Anderson is a below average 2B who struggles on the bases and his bat might not translate either

@ItalHitmen23 Don’t think 2.9 bWAR is a AAAA player,

[Path to Tigers Analytics @TigersFarmData]

Been a big push of mine so far, fits a lot of what the #Tigers like

Would be able to be a capable SS w/ UTL ability. Scott Harris connection. Limited power output, RHH, puts the ball in play, low strikeout risk, elite glove.

Projected: 2/28, option of 1/14. Might not hit FA

[Tigers Torkmoil @bythewaybro]

Mauricio Dubon might be a guy I would target in free agency if I were the Tigers

@therogcast Breaking: Sports company hires Hall of Famer to break down the game

[Path to Tigers Analytics @TigersFarmData]

@bneal39 There are some against analytics yes, I agree with you on Feel of the game, situations and it shows for teams

[Path to Tigers Analytics @TigersFarmData]

I'm not going to knock anyone, etc. If you want to discredit analytics go ahead, but at least have a fundamental understanding of what they are

This is beyond just flat stats like WAR, SIERA, FIP, etc. There's such a broad band of analytics that drives EVERY sport

@sstaedtler8787 @m_f_thatherton @KatsOnTop Yeah I’m sure App state was really concerned about liberty fans vacations while students were homeless, people in the town died, and the school needed major renovations. It’s unfortunate for LU fans but the players/fans ruined it for themselves off initial reaction

[Path to Tigers Analytics @TigersFarmData]

@BaseballWRLD_ Luis Rengifo, should meet the criteria

[Path to Tigers Analytics @TigersFarmData]

Obviously eye test supersedes all, but this hatred towards analytics is quite funny when the baseline understanding of such isn't there in general.

Regression, Forecasting, MSE, Ljung Box, Univariate, Matching, etc are all key fundamental aspects

[Kenny @FireUpPool2]

Nobody wants to remember that 2019, 114 loss team

[Path to Tigers Analytics @TigersFarmData]

@bkramer_2 Haven't seen any either, I'd leave that to @therogcast who prolly has something I'd imagine

2 of Rainer's 3 batted balls were hard contact, one would have fell in the MLB. Peck had an ABS K, three pitch K, and then saw 4 pitches in his 3 other ABs along with a Sac Fly

[Rogelio C @therogcast]

Our @tigersMLreport YouTube channel just hit 1 million views and over 90,000 hours watched with 3,436 subscribers. Pretty damn proud of that.

There’s an audience for Tigers prospect coverage, and we’re grateful you’ve made us part of your baseball routine.

@IYKbaseball Jim ONeil is the perfect DC internally

[Path to Tigers Analytics @TigersFarmData]

The Lions have a massive Kelvin Sheppard issue, but Brad Holmes has also dropped the ball the last two off-seasons

This is said as a non Lions fan
