@JohnnyNienstedt @enosarris @fangraphs @srbrown70 Also got to communicate with Mr. Sarris which is very cool to me. Huge Giants fan by the way so good luck in your role!

@TJStats This was my article and I appreciate the feedback. Definitely a learning moment for me that will help me in the future. Love your work by the way!

@enosarris @fangraphs I agree, I should have made that part more clear and I was not as thorough as I should have been regarding Stuff+. Definitely a learning moment for me.

@JohnnyNienstedt @enosarris @fangraphs @srbrown70 My apologies, I totally misinterpreted that. That was initially where I got the idea for the article. Not sure how I got this far with that critical misinterpretation but I'll talk to the guys at Fangraphs about it.

@enosarris @fangraphs In my opinion, models don't fully grasp the relationship between release, extension, etc. and the characteristics of the pitch itself and how that relationship contributes to its deception/effectiveness. StuffPro includes these factors as well but rate the pitch as negative RV.

Webb, Glasnow, Snell, Yamamoto, Ohtani, Burnes, Gallen, Cease, Musgrove, and probably Sasaki all in one division. Pretty incredible collection of starters in the NL West.

Excited to watch this kid this spring! Not sure what his role will be but he has the talent to potentially make a big impact.

Unbelievable that an MLB owner can't cough up $150K to avoid arbitration with a guy who's played for him for the past six years.

My new blog post covers the relationship between pitching models and Cade Smith's fastball.

Don't forget it: Jayce Lee

With the new deal for Snell, deferred money still remains an issue for free agency parity in the MLB. The Dodgers are exploiting it to the fullest and it should start to be regulated.

New player for ND this season. Didn’t catch the name but will follow up and keep my eyes on him this season. Elite bat speed and athleticism.

Attended the Notre Dame vs. Northwestern game today. A player that really caught my eye was Estevan Moreno. Impressive power/speed combo. Ended up turning this play into a triple and also stole a bag.

The deferrals in Ohtani’s contract should not be legal. What’s the point of the luxury tax if big market teams like the Dodgers only have to pay ~60% of the actual AAV of a deal over the duration of the contract?

The Yankees should seriously consider releasing Stanton. It would allow Grisham to play center more which would reduce the toll on Judge’s body. Significantly improved roster flexibility is far more valuable than a slightly above average DH bat.

Crazy that a team with the talent of the Reds will have the second pick.

The Chourio contract could be a major bargain or major mistake. However, I think the Brewers and other low-mid market organizations are well served to make these moves with top prospects.

In this post I break down the Tyler Glasnow rumors and where he could end up.

Take a look at my first blog post where I detail my experiences throughout my baseball career.

@giantstortureTM @dsennacherib @BenKaspick There’s also a domino effect of pushing Slater and Yaz to the corners which pushes the corner guys to bench roles. There’s a lot of value in adding Bellinger.
