Like, the Angels having a few late scratches could be horrifying

Whyyyyy did they show a dramatic slow-mo of Fauci’s pitch

Greinke is a candidate for the Hall of Fame and I really have no clue what would he wear

seriously, what happens if 9 players test positive simultaneously for the same team?

Which Cubs gets more MVP votes? Bryant, Baez, or Contreras?

I don't think they actually know

Sad that Dan didn't get to spam "April" as answers to small-sample-size freakouts this year :(

I'll just be spamming a different month

Greinke would be in Angels red obviously!

Greinke should show up wearing the cap of a team he never played for

Is getting to pick your opponents part of the new playoff agreement?
AvatarDan Szymborski

I'm still not sure what the core is. Did we evolve and grow a new part I don't know?
7:34
Yes

I could see Greinke asking to design his own hat for the hall

if POC tests were 80 percent accurate, how many tests would each player have to take in order to be 99.9 percent sure he is not positive

Will home field advantage matter this season?
AvatarDan Szymborski

I'm not sure - I haven't found that teams with less attendance had smaller HFA

NYT just had a story a few weeks ago talking about how the empty stadiums have affected soccer games https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/01/sports/soccer/soccer-without-fans-g...
Baseball fans are obviously much different behaving, though

Yanks hitters' timing looks pretty off. Bet there will be a lot of late swings in the early going.

On # of tests, infinite if the 20% error is systematic -- like misses certain cases -- not random.

Does statcast usually need time to get up to speed? theres no way all Coles pitches are 4seamers with mid80 break. Ive noticed way more weird pitch categorization in the practice games too.

Maybe still working out the hawkeye stuff?

I think it's mostly a classification issue--Dillon Maples was definitely not throwing 88MPH fastballs last night

I understand your point about Luhnow but that's even worse. How can you be so clueless to allow such a scenario where the biggest downside is on you
