    R1/3: Drake Maye QB UNC

    Much happier with this than Daniels I would rather have a boom or bust guy than someone who has a higher floor but then you have to decide if he's worth a second contract. If Maye isn't it we will probably know by year 3 and can move on. I understand why they wouldn't but I'd want to start him...

    Happy Maye Day

    Why are the odds so low on Daniels going 2? Is this just groupthink or was there some actual credible reporting I missed?

    Silver Dollar - The Official NBA Betting Thread!

    I'm not in the Discord (will probably hop in when I remember) so you're probably hammering this there but the Unders have been I think undefeated so far this playoffs? I won a nice amount on Mil-Ind game 1 betting U 233 (ended at 203...)

    My Ideal Metric - TOTAL bases

    This sounds similar to "Total Average" but I do like the addition of extra bases taken on hits by others: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_average

    March/April: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    I see this a fair amount and gotta call it out. This describes Rutschman, Holliday, Kjerstad and Cowser, the latter three of whom haven't done much yet, but the Orioles have also nailed lots of later picks. The Red Sox could have taken Westburg instead of Yorke. Coby Mayo (current 24th overall...

    March/April: Red Sox discussion, observations and trend tracking...AKA It's not all about the Benjamins

    Yeah...Bello is their best pitcher. I don't have a lot of faith in the rest of the guys going 6+ so I don't think SJH is off here. To the extent this is a leaguewide issue, one thing you would think more teams would be developing, especially smart teams like the Red Sox, since the change in...

    2024 Celtic Playoff Prediction Poll

    I don't think they rest anyone, that would be malpractice, but there will probably be some games missed by the top 5 and there will be some games where shots don't fall. And I think the Finals will be really tough if it's Denver. So 6-8 losses seems reasonable but as noted there is a very wide...

    It's going to be a long year. They won't suck completely but the rest of the division is just too good.

    Red Sox, Ceddanne Rafaela agree to contract extension

    Someone with excellent strike zone judgment like Pedroia is a horrible comp for Rafaela and it's wishcasting to bring that up. You could have faith in Pedroia because he had more walks than Ks in the minors and while struggling in his first MLB time he had like a <200 BABIP which was going to...

    The Juice Expires (OJ Dead at 76)

    If anyone missed it and can't really remember the 90s, I thought the OJ: Made In America ESPN documentary about his career / life / the case was pretty good.

    Red Sox, Ceddanne Rafaela agree to contract extension

    It's not going to prevent them from doing other stuff or moving him to 4th OF / super-utility guy if they get better options, but I don't think I would have done this deal for someone with that BB/K ratio in the minors and majors. Maybe I'm old school and they have data that says he can improve...

    The Next Pats QB: Daniels or Maye?

    Well, none of the rule changes really apply to a QB, who were already protected, but who are going to take some hits regardless especially if they scramble or are used on designed runs (and for whom strength -- what usually correlates with weight -- is less important). I mean, Mahomes barely...

    2024 Rotation and Bullpen

    But they're only barely above the average. So even if it does, being 5th doesn't mean much other than I guess, they're not going to be terrible, which we basically knew. No one really thinks it's "dire" except that they don't have much depth.

    I hope not.
