Caught up on the Internet Invitational.
I don’t trust people who don’t like the Duke.
Also, it’s kind of soft if your response to him being on your team is
“This is unfair!”
And not
“This will be legendary when we pull this off.”

@Zach_Beasley27 is the best BP thrower in the country and it’s not close.
It’s feel good location-wise but game like velocity-wise. This lets him challenge hitters when needed and boost confidence other times.
It’s a legitimate game changer.
“Yeah he’s a chucker bro. I know i suck at sports and have my whole life and everyone hates me but i definitely know ball. It was somehow a fluke for 30 straight games in the SEC last year.”
@ArkActAssn @NFHSNetwork not sure whose responsibility it is, but I just paid 15 bucks to watch the 6A volleyball state tournament game, Southside vs. Bryant, and we can’t get the schools right.
To make matters worse I have to look at “Bentonville” which specifically sucks.

@coachkelley1 Falcons just ran a hook and lateral up 12 with 10 minutes to go in the 4th.
RB leaked out of the backfield to be the lateral man which gave him a lot of downfield momentum. Pretty slick, thought you’d appreciate.

Also, getting their time to the plate is irrelevant if you go from initial leg lift.
You have to start the clock when he reaches his point of no return to the plate.
He’s not the 1.7 he appears to be if he’s a read move lefty. He’s effectively much quicker.

What purpose does it serve to be condescending? What’s the motivation? I want to know @tangotiger @ToirtapB

Extremely rough draft and AI explanation of wBPPA.
Used an article @tangotiger sent me for help and inspiration. Ironically he sent me the article to tell me this has been done before, and it's not worth it.
I'm having fun and that's what matters.

I present to you my personal hitting metric:
BPPA (Bases Per Plate Appearance)
It simply answers the question, how many bases do you obtain each time you step to the plate?
Total Bases+SB+BB+HBP-CS-K-GIDP)/ Plate Appearances.
Here's the top 25 compared to wOBA. (A thread)
That’s right, KT!
This team is coming on 👊🏻 Played well Friday against Texas and broke through with big ranked win this afternoon! Great support by @ArkRazorbacks fans all weekend. Let’s continue the momentum 🐗🏐

How did I not follow you earlier? Freaking beast!!! Keep it simple don’t be a robot.
If a hitter has a steep path, he might need to feel like he is swinging up to match pitch plane. If a hitter is “collapsing the back side” (old school terminology) he might need to think and feel like he is swinging down to get on plane!
There isn’t one path, name of the game is to match plane and create room for error.

So close @OuachitaFB but at least you got a cool video!

Horrible take. Referencing errors as the primary indicator of defensive capability in the OF in 2026 is egregious.
Also describing his defense as good is a huge undersell. Look at OAA and other stats on baseball savant if you need guidance.
The hype surrounding PCA from the mainstream media is crazy.
WAR applies too much weight on defense, and defensive sabermetrics are highly unreliable. His defense is good, but also prone to errors (most by all CF this year).
I'd always take Acuña '23 or Ohtani '24 over PCA '26.

It’s not fun to point to Outfield Defense as a big part of player value, but it is whether you believe it or not.
30ish% of PCA’s WAR total is coming from defense. If you think that’s too high, think about turning a double into an out and how that changes an inning.
