more falafel please posted:

St. Paul was in the independent American Association, and I don't think they typically sign players to multi-year deals, so they're probably just done

That's kinda sad. I still fondly recall we did a corporate outing to see a SP Saints game and we all got blasted at the game and surrounding breweries.

The Cubs have officially broken PECOTA, they're so goddamn middling and full of guys who are a coinflip between good or terrible that PECOTA couldn't even project a proper confidence interval for them. It's more like a confidence... mesa?



I don't know what math/logic goes into those distributions but that could be a bimodal distribution which could be case if a single decision point had an outsized effect. Like, you could imagine the Angels having something like that if Mike Trout was currently being checked for an ACL injury. One distribution would be "tests are negative" and one would be "tests are positive". Since Mike Trout is worth like 8-10 wins, summing them up would give you a double-peaked histogram like that.

But there's no way to know which one is real until you check out that ACL.

Schroedinger's Trout.

I assumed poop love was a compound verb there and am glad I am mistaken.

Can we just lean back and take in the narcissism of a man named Jose naming his daughter Josie.

So is there any reason to think the Red Sox will be better than last year? I guess they got Sale back.

The monacle popping emote yankee fans used for him a decade ago was more apt than we knew.
