I thought they got along great and were friends? I think its as simple as both thinking they were better suited for the Astros' job. Maldy knows...
No - to clarify, you're comparing each player to their own previous and following seasons. So if all the non-WBC players perform at their own...
Yeah, I don't know if there's quite enough data yet to be statistically meaningful. If WBCers do 10% worse than non-WBCers, that might not be...
I think there are a few ways, but it might be a pain: Compare the WBC players' stats during WBC year vs year before and after with the non-WBC...
Pretty sure any major or minor league pitcher could throw 4 pitches that look filthy when facing a random dude off the street.
Wait, are we supposed to be impressed that Whitley's can strike out a random Youtuber?
I think the risk is that he'll be 30 when he's a free agent, so a 10/500 deal signs him until he's 40. Will he still be hitting AND pitching in...

As it turns out, we knew about it a while back. Biden was briefed on it on Tuesday. It was spotted on Thursday by the public. We also tracked...
This is phenomenally helpful - thank you!
You have a very simplistic and poor understanding of the world of intelligence gathering.
The unquestioning hatred of anything Biden does is baffling to me. You don't think there's any possible reason we might not shoot down anything...
Or to see if they can do it and no one notices. The US may have been perfectly happy to have China not know we were tracking it. All countries...
[MEDIA] Lets all shoot our guns in the airline and try to hit a balloon that's flying higher than commercial air traffic.
Maybe we don't *want* to shoot it down and instigate a conflict. Or maybe we don't want to shoot it down over another country. Maybe we do similar...
