    I’m a baseball player. I’ve never written a single line of code in my life. But over the last few months, I used AI to build a pitching analytics platform from scratch. 8.9M pitches. Custom ML models. Total transparency. Here is a look at what happens when you give an

    If you don’t vote for Barry Bonds to be in the HoF you’re a clown. The amount of skinny pitchers who took roids to recover and stay healthy between starts is innumerable. Thinking you’re the arbiter of of steroid use is ridiculous.

    45° past parallel is kinda ridiculous
    Major League Baseball will begin experimenting with using bat-tracking technology to call check swings starting tonight in the Single-A Florida State League. More details: atmlb.com/4k7hsj3

    It’s not acceptable to wait outside a player’s home for an autograph. Their hotel is similar. Earning a hefty salary because you’re good at your job doesn’t mean you don’t deserve a little personal space at the place you (currently) live.
    Mike Trout not for the kids. Hate to see it.

    You misspelled “floor”.
    Should MLB have a salary cap?

    After a game one one time a fan approached me with my own bat and asked me to sign it. Incredulously I asked him how he got my bat. He said my teammate traded it to him for some baseball cards (of himself). Months later that teammate was released for rampant stealing.
    Sources: The Yankees cut third-round pick Jake Sanford after he allegedly stole bats and gloves from teammates and tried to sell them online. He also allegedly scammed fans, selling autographed equipment and never delivering: nj.com/yankees/2022/0…

    Look at this pitch and then talk more sh** about modern pitchers not being able to pitch 9 innings. You see this type of pitch in Sunday leagues.
    Mickey Mantle can barely get around the bases he’s in so much pain, but he had enough left in the tank to get it over the RF wall

    Congratulations to Randy Arozarena and Jonathan India for both having hit homeruns off of me. And also for winning RoY. Their success versus me was taken into large consideration by the voters I’m sure.

    One day when I’m a FA that people care about, Im giving @FoolishBB the news first. But people are gonna think he’s just messing around with funny player/uniform combos. This is now a goal of mine.

    Every morning in spring training Adam Wainright would help me do the crossword puzzle and Yadier Molina would work on my blocking/receiving at 6am in February. I was a 20yo minor league rookie and 12 years later I love them for it. Outstanding human beings.

    Thank you for all the support everyone!! Considering I walked approximately 40 batters, it went about as well as it could have. I’ll dial it in next time and make it more fun to be a fan of mine. Now time to make sure my wife doesn’t follow through on her threats 😂

    If you’re curious where the owner has his pilot land his helicopter at Roger Dean, it’s right between field 1 and 2. And I’m not joking.
