Another week of baseball means another week of bullpen drama. Nothing like the Mets/Cardinals drama though.  We're staying in the bullpens here, not jumping over the fence.

Early Pitching Outliers: Swinging-Strike Rate vs. Strikeout Rate

It is very early in the season, as the league leaders have made just four starts. Because of this, we have a lot of strangeness in the data that has been generated, especially with pitching, which is an inherently random exercise. One thing that can be a bit random over a small sample size is […]

The New York Yankees placed outfielder Aaron Hicks on the paternity list on Tuesday and recalled infielder/outfielder Miguel Andujar from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in a corresponding move.
