@ATCNY @ToutWars @DerekCarty @DerekVanRiper @andybehrens These standings seem pretty standard.
Assuming a binomial distribution, you'd expect the first place team to be 8-3 and the 8th place team to be 5-6.
Is this unusual for a competitive league?

@yupthtexists It is a 1994 book. We need a reprint

@SlangsOnSports How many starting pitchers have thrown triple-digits in their first ever pitch in the majors?

[Alex @ajt126]

@HeimishHumor He was shot in the temple.

@PitcherList @ifthechufits It wouldn't be PitcherList if they didn't have a bias toward catchers in their top hitters.

Some notes from Kevin Cash on @RaysRadio today:

- Christopher Morel will be playing LF

- Eloy Jimenez lost close to 25 pounds this offseason

- The prospects like Carson Williams, Xavier Isaac, Tre Morgan, Chandler Simpson and Brayden Taylor will be playing a lot this spring

@PitcherList Is the @mjgovier panel going to be put up?

[Alex @ajt126]

@Michael_Fabiano Chiefs-Bucs with the Weeknd was worse.

@HeimishHumor May you be blessed that caring about sports is the most goyish thing you do.

@Regicidal Interesting, I thought you'd be upset at the loss of Polar Bear Pete

[Alex @ajt126]

@billjamesonline It is no different from how current sabermetricians mention about Bill James. It is about respecting who came before you. Even if people today are way better.

[Alex @ajt126]

@Regicidal Lindor is going to win the Silver Slugger. You think Mookie will win?

[Alex @ajt126]

@ATCNY The 2024 White Sox are not worthy of breaking the Mets’ record.
No one should be happy.

[Alex @ajt126]

@PitcherList By that logic, Roy Oswalt was better than Mike Mussina.

@CarlosT28554406 @PitcherList According to cWPA (Championship Win Probability Added)

[Alex @ajt126]

@pirates_at448 @PitcherList It doesn't matter how good Lugo is. All that matters is what happened on the field. ERA has an inherent flaw in that it overreacts to blowups when that equates to only one loss.

[Alex @ajt126]

@PitcherList Precisely. It is raw results. Lugo has done more to help his team win than Skubal has. The only reason Skubal is the favorite is because of his Ks and that he gets more run support. Lugo is being penalized for a few blowup starts.
