Hi everyone, I'm excited to share that I'll be joining the Texas Rangers for the 2027 season as a Baseball Analytics Apprentice! I'm incredibly grateful to everyone who's supported me along the way and to the Rangers' R&D group for this opportunity. Can't wait to get started!

My 2 questions for #NJDevils GM Sunny Mehta at his press conference today and his well thought out answers. Called him out for bluffing. Got him talking about Bayesian hierarchical models. And allegedly stole @mikemorrealeNHL’s question 😂
