A barrel in 2025 is not the same as a barrel in 2016. I recalibrated barrels such that each season holds the outcome quality fixed (.813 AVG / 2.813 SLG). HR/aBrl SD drops from 5.71 to 0.90. @tangotiger.com wrote in 2018: "if someone wants to tweak [this] by all means." Finally took you up on it.

Through July 3, Logan Webb has more strikeouts (127) than Hunter Brown (126) Dylan Cease (121) Paul Skenes (115) Chris Sale (114) Just like we all predicted

First draft of the year is in the books! Thanks to #BubbaAndTheBloom for setting it up, looking forward to competing in the second annual listener league. Other than desperately needing SVs off the wire, how'd I do?

A cool thread on a guy I'm starting to come around on for the first time. And for a pretty basic reason: Jordan Walker hit a ball 115.5 mph last year. In 2024, there were 38 hitters with 400+ PA who hit a ball 114+ mph. 34/38 had >= 100 wRC+ 30/38 had >= 116 wRC+ I'll take those odds.
