I'm very excited to be concocting way-too-early and very incomplete advanced metrics for the WPBL! I'm sure they'll update the league their website with more stats the moment I finish this code, but it's a fun exercise anyway.
A teacher I know in the south has to put these stickers in all of the students' textbooks. It's USSR levels of pointless waste out here.
Ah! I'm so excited! When we (at the #Marlins) signed him back in 2021, Yan was playing in a men's rec league and modeling on the side. His journey to the majors isn't the stuff of a Disney movie. It's more like a Jojo's Bizarre Adventure manga. He's got real main character energy and I love him.
Razzball@razzball.bsky.social · yesterdayMets just called Jefry Yan, who does this strikeout celly, and frankly I can’t wait for him to bust this out for a 100-loss team. This is going to 1000% rock
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised to see him, at minimum, in a bulk role. His conversation to relief hasn't resulted in the performance jump you'd normally expect. Why not stretch him back out?
@greglpdx.bsky.social · yesterday@bradleywoodrum.com a thought struck me this morning. Considering the Rays' history of turning relievers into starters, do you think they will keep Wells a reliever or try to stretch him out again?
I personally am very bothered by my future brain aneurysm thanks to Taylor Walls and Tyler Wells being on the same #Rays team.
Folks, we've had a banner day for future editions of Immaculate Grid.

I’m on such a high after two evenings of women’s pro ball. Happiness feels lovely on A Sunday evening. #WPBL
Marisa Ingemi@mingemi.bsky.social · 3d agoFirebells beat Hunters 11-3 for their first win in the WPBL. Standings after first weekend: Los Angeles 1-0 San Francisco 1-0 Boston 0-1 New York 0-1
Last night was very helpful in figuring which team was most equipped to play in tornadic conditions. Hopefully that's not very useful information for the remainder of the #WPBL season.
Frankie de la Cretaz@thefrankiedlc.news · 3d agoSo far the Firebells have looked like the most well-rounded team but I’m interested to see the Heights and the Queens when the conditions are better because I think that really hampered the players last night, especially defensively.
What a thrilling Opening Day for the #WPBL! They played through tough weather, and made it memorable. Off to a great start!
It's a strike. She's still got it. Someone get the #Cubs on the phone!

y'all should be following @mingemi.bsky.social for #WPBL coverage this weekend if y'all don't already. Marisa does amazing work — love her, proud to be able to call her a colleague. she's killing it out in Springfield.
just feels right for Mo’ne to be the first ever lead off hitter

JJ Cooper@jjcoop36.bsky.social · 6d agoI studied the 21st century history of aces being traded at the deadline in rental deals. Maybe Tarik Skubal's return ends up a bit higher, but past returns illustrate the challenge the Tigers face in getting an excellent return. www.baseballamerica.com/stories/what...
