pretty big update: there's now splits by pitch type available for hitters on their popout rows and in a designated leaderboard under hitters > splits. You can also create different combinations of splits on each splits tabs + new plots, new filters, and a few new visible stats
Some news for those of you that use my app: I’m rolling out an improved version with a ton of new features, including splits, customizable hitter & pitcher comps, plots on each page, updated SEAGER/damage/pitch models, sample size adjustments, and more.

Bat speed can offer insights into players improving, aging, or fighting through injuries.
I sorted bat speed gainers and losers year over year, with blurbs and early ‘27 ADP:

Just one guy’s perspective, but the October hunger for fantasy baseball drafts next season is higher than I’ve ever seen.
We gonna be alright.

MLB Payrolls of the remaining teams, ranked.
Guardians: 29th
Rays: 28th
White Sox: 27th
Brewers: 19th
Dodgers: 1st
So one out of the top 5 teams left spends money, and apparently that means we need a salary cap?

Lineup decisions and batting order in general often gets overblown in terms of its importance, but it matters a lot when one player gets five at-bats rather than four and it was Trent Grisham instead of Ben Rice with a runner on 2nd in a one run game

Another quick update:
-you can look for an MLB profile/pitch in MiLBers now, while also filtering that results pool by handedness, playing time, or level
-added some easy to use presets on all 3 comp pages
-a couple new pitcher columns for breaking ball/offspeed velo + usage

Carson Benge - respectfully - believes he is deserving of the National League Rookie of the Year award:
"I don't know [Sal Stewart], but he seems like a great dude. He's a Jesus man, which I love. He seems like a great person.
But I feel like I would be deserving of the award in the most humble way possible. I don't mean to come off cocky.
I think I deserve it. I think I showed in the whole season, in all facets of the game, that I did a pretty good job showcasing my talent, but there's definitely other good rookies out there."

Benge is a better batter, better runner, *and* better fielder than Sal Stewart
Stewart is even on offense with JJ and FAR behind on defense
But RBI is the reason we are having this conversation? And we are not in 1976?

If Junior Caminero starts at third base tomorrow, as he has all year, he would become the fourth player in the divisional era (1969) to start 162 games at third base in a season, joining:
1998 Vinny Castilla
1997 Cal Ripken Jr.
1969 Sal Bando

I love Tatis man this whole interview is perfect. You will not see heaven if you even think of wanting to trade him as a Padres fan.

Some of the best money spent on fantasy baseball.
Honestly, it should cost more.

I think the Marlins turning bullpen days into relief outings for SPs is a bet that after considering objective workload variables, injuries are either a) inevitable and/or b) random.
Good bet? I have no idea. But their thinking and application is electric.
