I wasn’t planning on writing this morning, as I only saw bits and pieces of the game and didn’t feel like I had a lot to say about it. Then I realized, when has that ever stopped me before? No, what I really noticed was everyone talking about Kolten Wong this morning. Which is a [...]

In the movement to heap more and more raw data on fans, the undeniably ubiquitous Statcast represents the omnipresent data shovel. Every piece of action on the field becomes translated into data which then spawns its own metadata which is really just data about data. Life in this new quantifiable hardball reality requires some adjustments [...]
