2nd greatest QB of all time? Patrick Mahomes.

@DaddyBean99 @ColtonR_15 I think letting our young highly-touted lefty bats face left-handed pitchers is the best way for them to learn how to hit better against left-handed pitchers.

@brewrers @bezuidengoy @travissram @mctiggyy @mjd_analysis For most pitches, the speed and direction it moves is how I define what pitch type it is. If it's in between 2 types, then I'll defer to whatever the pitcher calls it.

@brewrers @bezuidengoy @travissram @mctiggyy @mjd_analysis If he threw his slider/cutter slower, with spin staying the same, it would *rise* even more.

@brewrers @bezuidengoy @travissram @mctiggyy @mjd_analysis This curve is a mislabeled knuckleball

@GandalfStaff Nagy gives yes-man vibes. I think EB will tell Andy when he's being stupid. That will be the biggest offseason acquisition.

@bobfescoe And Wade Davis

@MrBrandman24 @TroyMachir Should this be ruled a catch or not? Pitcher definitely uses part of his uniform to aid in the putout.

@sunshinevvn @orwellian Remove the pitcher roster limit, and tie the DH to the SP so when a reliever comes in, the DH is gone

[Wolfe Weeks @wolfeweeks]

@ACurrentAffair2 @OnlyCardsFans So a comebacker hits a pitcher in the shoulder, pops straight up, and is caught. Out or no?

[Wolfe Weeks @wolfeweeks]

@CJNitkowski I'm fine giving teams an incentive to roster a 2way player. The more the better.

[Wolfe Weeks @wolfeweeks]

@JLucroy20 Since us common folk can't know anything about hitting, should we listen to your advice, or the other MLB hitters that contradict your advice, many of whom have been better hitters? Should we just turn our brains off when hearing conflicting information?

[Wolfe Weeks @wolfeweeks]

@TJStats @AndThatsBB I don't know the actual history of it, but I like to imagine some random guy in a bar one day was like "What if you just added these two things" and accidentally created an almost-perfect stat

[Wolfe Weeks @wolfeweeks]

@TJStats @AndThatsBB I know the math is shoddy, but isn't team OPS strongly correlated with team runs (even more than wOBA)? I feel like I remember seeing that a while back.

@anne__rogers @BrianAndersen67 What happened to the powders being the primary road uniform?

[Wolfe Weeks @wolfeweeks]

@MJ_Melendezz @MattStrahmy April 3rd starting pitcher Luinder Avila?

Who’s a prospect you believed in but never worked out?

[Wolfe Weeks @wolfeweeks]

Roll trites 🔱 @gbrunstetter

[Premier Pitching and Performance @premierpitching]

Two PPP Athletes and @UMSLBSB arms posted zeros today and flashed quality breaking balls. Both exited the game with the lead in tact.

@jazayerli I really thought he was gonna bust out 94mph his first pitch to shut us all up, but alas

[Wolfe Weeks @wolfeweeks]

@jullerino @robinebers @theo Not a t3 code user, but let's say I have a script that generates a csv, and wanna open it in a spreadsheet app instead of an ide? That would be one use case. But maybe you can already directly open files from the app 🤷‍♂️
