To my #baseball Mastodon friends, let me introduce @BCB_Sara one of the absolute best #cubs fans in the world!
I like how Twitter is now The Producers in that its owner is actively trying to sabotage it and also there are Nazis

Hey, #baseball folks!

I’d like to bump the account of @kidagreen

She’s an #Astros fan — and she appreciates wRC+!

My latest takes a closer look at the Eric Hosmer signing by the numbers — there’s not a lot to get excited about here, but it turns out a very slightly above average 1B is an improvement for a team that rolled out well-below average options in 2022.

Enjoying this essay about the flaws of peer review. It is a huge barrier to quality science and new ideas, which might be worth it if it also stopped fraud or bad ideas from gaining ground--except it doesn't. It doesn't work to filter out bad work, and it does filter out good work. https://experimentalhistory.substack.com/p/the-rise-and-fall-of-peer-review

I've been as critical about Jed Hoyer's innate sense of caution as anyone, and also, boy am I grateful for it today because I'm not sure Cubs fans could survive Correa Chaos.
I just sponsored Mastodon at the $500 a month tier. Gotta keep those servers chugging!

My latest looks at the Dansby Swanson signing by the numbers. Swanson improves the Cubs defense up the middle & likely improves them offensively as well, but fans are right to wonder why a major market team opted for a Prius with Ferraris on the lot.
