@PitcherList @CPTowers @PitcherListPLV Old saying: All models are wrong — some are useful

@CPTowers @Roto_Frank is the email for asking questions still [email protected]? Just curious if that inbox is still monitored

Wrote an analytical article breaking down how power and speed's changing in the MLB

@jdpereira One of the weirdest flexes I think I’ve ever seen on twitter

@JosiahParry I just don’t see a legitimate reason to not use python in 2024. R is purely academic and doesn’t have nearly as robust of a community

[Shane Simon, PhD @sharkweekshane]

@enosarris Ah if it isn’t the consequences of MLBs partnerships with gambling, and the players suffering the price

[Shane Simon, PhD @sharkweekshane]

I wrote an analytical article modeling what Ted Williams' and Joe DiMaggio's careers would have looked like if they didn't miss time from WW2.

@DavidSt24 @BeyondTheHalo Best response to this. You either get the bunt down or you don't. Simple.

@epigeekGab Someone had to say it

[Shane Simon, PhD @sharkweekshane]

@DolphHauldhagen Totally agree. Are there categories of swing types based on the new metrics (Kmeans)? And do hitters change their type depending on the situation? Anyways, curious how all these data play out.

This is your wake up call to stop using R and start using Python

@RobSilver That's a bold strategy cotton; let's see if it pays off for him.

@ByMarkDaniels My main takeaway is that this dude is really well spoken

[Shane Simon, PhD @sharkweekshane]

@Smada_PLive I get the feeling. Are they still going to be the A's though? They've spent time in Philly, KC, Oakland, and if they keep the name, Vegas too. The A's only know the nomatic style

@tylermilliken_ I don’t think this Red Sox roster has that solid of a foundation. Devers is a defensive liability with DH occupied, their pitching is Bello, and Trevor story never hits well out of Coors. I’d argue they have the worst foundation in the AL East

@Roto_Frank Royce Lewis or Elly De La Cruz next year for a keeper, last round value
