🚨 It's Big Update Day over at the Statcast factory. First: these slick looking pitch movement (and arm angle!) charts at the top of each player page. You can get context, flip POV, get some different angles. This is showing IVB. Speaking of which .. baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/…

A few smaller things up on Baseball Savant from the great @danabennett while we work on some much bigger things 1) You can do run value/100 pitches now, if you like rate stats. So, best RV/100 on pitch types thrown at least 250 times (#results" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">baseballsavant.mlb.com/statcast_searc…)

@mike_petriello Hi! This was the only contact I could find on baseballsavant. Can I ask why "Teams" and "BABIP" have been removed from the custom leaderboards as of yesterday? Thanks

I'm really excited about this feature! Tons to look into, here's an example of sweeper movement compared to sliders, by all pitchers that have thrown at least 50 of one or the other. #results" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">baseballsavant.mlb.com/statcast_searc…

ICYMI yesterday: you can now search on pitch movement numbers at Baseball Savant. Short form, long form, in, out, whatever you like. So here's batters in 2022-23 who have had to face the most 97MPH+ pitches that moved at least 10 inches away from them #results" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">baseballsavant.mlb.com/statcast_searc…

As well as minifying, obfuscating, and compressing your HTML, CSS, JS, try swapping your double quotes to the much lighter single-quote. #perfmatters

I heard baseball twitter loves pitcher overlays, so I made one. Am I doing this right @PitchingNinja? Happy Opening Day!

@joemadison89 @tangotiger @thorn_john Ah! Thanks for pointing me in this direction (twitter.com/thorn_john/sta…) It's the same ratio, but his is a way less contrived sample!

On Pi Day last year, I wondered whether any MLB player ever finished a season with a batting average of 31416. Found Scoops Carey, with Washington Senators of 1902. Carey is indeed the baseball face of pi: while his 1902 batting average rounds to 31416, it extends to 31415929.

Happy Day! From August 5th 2018 through May 16th 2021 Xander Bogaerts got 355 hits in 1130 plate appearances. That was good for a batting average of .3141592...

Hello again twitter! Anything new in the last three years? If you are finding me from SABR, I may dust this account off occasionally, but don’t expect much. If you are in Phoenix and see me, please say hello!
