He's seeing fewer pitches there generally but not super dramatically.
there is no cool kids table - would imply cool kids among these nerds :)

I'm actually envious of them

(sorry non-ESPN+ folks, though might make a trial more appealing as a way to navigate the next two days

Is the Fangraphs depth charts playing time scaled to 60 games or something else?

60

btw the new Fangraphs audio format is nice, hope it stays (and that everyone invests in podcaster gear). I like getting multiple voices interacting

is this where I come for the hooting and hollering?

My gear is excellent, I just need a better voice!
This is for sophisticated hooting.

I'm glad you're enjoying it!

Ben knows what his empty office means for sound quality - he's working on it.

Is it podcaster or podcastor?

The Angels should've a lot of things.

Part of me would want to ride Cole for as long as possible to save the bullpen and another part wants to protect him at all costs and would be thinking about yanking him after 5 or 6, even at this pace

Suter Game 1 brings Brewers odds up a skosh.
Jeremy Tice

If they pull Cole, who pitches next? Johnny Lasagna to eat as many innings as possible?
Sam
9:06
My instinct would be to keep him out there as long as things go smoothly
AvatarDan Szymborski
9:06
Up 5, that's what I would do. No need to burn low-leverage innings. There's only so far I'm going to stretch Cole
Meg Rowley
9:07
this is going to sound obvious but I think the thing I appreciate the most about the Statcast broadcast is how much they... talk about the game?
AvatarDan Szymborski

The big difference for me is that when they want to fill time with an insight, they don't reach for some cockamamie nonsense or cliche.

They might need Lasagna to go 2 innings in a game 3 with Happ pitching.
Meg Rowley

I think it is good to have a range of broadcast options - not everyone engages with the sport how we do. But boy, I really appreciate having this option.

the statcast broadcast feels more like a radio broadcast to me? but i may be biased, in that I think radio broadcasts are generally better than TV ones
AvatarDan Szymborski

My hope is the way cutting-edge analysis of 20 years ago is the analysis today, the cutting-edge broadcasts now are the norm in 20 years.

I feel like my team's broadcast crew does a pretty good job because they use OPS but then the colour guy will just up and drop a "he's a ball player" on us.

Dont you think that maybe Bieber tipped his 4seam or something today?? The Yankees crushed it
AvatarDan Szymborski

Hard to really see that thing on the camera.

I love watching Cimber pitch.
