Damn Sandy, looking at your team that was GDCK the last 2-3 years, it looks like your championship window has slammed shut for the time being

Yap
Everything that could go wrong went wrong last season
Machado to SD - bleh
Dozier, Shaw, Wade Davis huge regression
Khrush sucking after getting hurt
Didi, Hicks, Sevy, were few of the many injuries
There is a rebound there i think

I’m pulling for you you know that

I got the only guys who couldnt make a jump with the new balls

I saw that Khrush stat before/after injury. Pretty telling. He was one of your early catalyst tho

Excited to get home and finally watch the Braves game. Turn on the TV without knowing the score.

I’m fully expecting the Rays to suffer the same fate tomorrow

Juan Soto is who everyone wanted Bryce Harper to be

I really hate these balls. Lol at that ball Howie hit getting out of the park

He crushed that. Kendrick is a low key unit

Hit hard no doubt but that type of trajectory doesn’t get out of that park like that

A lot of people think that they’ve changed the balls back for the postseason. The drag on the baseball has jumped way up.

And as air resistance increased, some of the most home run-happy offenses of 2019 have combined to produce a playoff dinger rate 10 percent lower than the league average. Another way to tell how big of an impact the ball is having is to look at how often hitters are mashing the ball only to find their deep flies dying before the fence. I built a model to predict the probability of each home run hit in 2019 using exit velocity, launch angle, and a park effect. Then I examined how many times batters hit what looked like sure home runs that dropped for outs instead.
In total, this model predicted that there should have been 24 more home runs so far in the playoffs than the 43 that were actually hit–an astounding 50 percent difference. For example, Muncy’s monster blast had a 95 percent probability of clearing the fence based on the regular season baseball. Instead, it fell several feet short. Two other fly balls had in excess of a 98 percent chance of being home runs before becoming outs instead.

Let's check statcast!
quote:
Howie Kendrick off RHP Joe Kelly - 105.0 mph, 24.88 degrees (410 ft Home Run)
66 out of 71 similar balls in play this year were home runs = 93%
18 HR traveled less distance that Kendrick's 410 ft HR. 5 of them to CF.

There were 3 HR hit in Dodger stadium this year with almost the exact speed, angle and location.
That ball doesn't get out in 4 maybe 5 parks. One of the chart's doubles and one of the triples were hit in those parks. Coors and Comerica.

The data for the whole year is skewed because of the balls
Wut are you wutting

This originally
Now this too I guess
Using same launch angle and exit velocity metrics
2018 HR = 64/72 = 91.6%
2019 HR = 66/71 = 92.9%
What other excuse you want to make for not understanding launch speed angles and HR correlations?
