When people talk about the most recognizable or adored athlete worldwide, the answer should always be a soccer player Even Ali, who was on a plane with Pele, said that Ali may be the most popular athlete in North America, but Pele is the most popular in the world

You can always tell when someone was born in the last 30 years... Is it so hard to say "one of their most"? But I guess trolling us for engagement works, given I'm QT this In addition to the obvious Bure, everyone ignores the goalies (Luongo)
When youβre trading Quinn Hughes, every package is going to feel underwhelming. Canucks fans just lost the most talented player to ever play for the franchise.

From 1987 to 1991, Magic and Jordan finished in top 3 in MVP in each season. Magic won 3, MJ 2. MJ was 24 to 28 years old. Magic was 27 to 31. There's not much separating the two. There's even less separating Magic/Bird. They are 1, A, and 1A in whatever order you want

The manager/catcher can strategize before each inning. The pitcher, and his massive ego, does NOT need to be involved in the least Indeed, if a pitcher does challenge, it'll likely mean that the Catcher Framed that pitch as to: a. Not fool the umpire b. Did fool his own pitcher
The ABS challenge system coming to MLB next season allows pitchers, catchers and batters to challenge ball/strike calls. Given how competitive pitchers can be, a few teams seem to be going in with a plan to only let their catchers challenge on the defensive side.

1973, Nolan Ryan best season: 39 GS, 326 IP, 383 K, 2.87 ERA, 2.49 FIP; 7.7 rWAR, 8.7 fWAR 1997, Pedro first Cy season with Expos: 31 GS, 241 IP, 305 K, 1.90 ERA, 2.39 FIP; 9.0 rWAR, 8.5 fWAR Would you rather give 326 IP: all to Ryan 241 to Pedro, 85 to minor league free agent

Warren Spahn is 8th all-time in IP From 1947-1963, he never started fewer than 32 games The most he started was 39 games So, even in heyday of 4-man rotations, you needed the occasional 5th pitcher in your rotation For the prompt below, you just need each to make ~35 starts
Youβre going with a 4-man staff. Each pitcher in his prime. Who do you cut?

If you wanted to make the question difficult, that 5th pitcher should have been deGrom or Kershaw or Tom Seaver

The answer is ridiculously obvious And yet we're nowhere close to unanimous in the comments I'm no fan of the Cy Young awards, but in this specific case, it answers the question

ERA An UNSCHEDULED GROUP Project: covers all chapters of book, with one score for whole Group wOBA A PLANNED GROUP Project: covers all chapters of book, with one score for whole Group FIP A PLANNED INDIVIDUAL Project: covers 30% of book (but is the 80% most important part)

2015-16 to present scoring leaders 1979-80 to 1988-89 scoring leaders For two players who stand atop their competition and their teammates, only one is out of this world If NHL was 3-on-3, 4-on-4, 5-on-5, 6-on-6, 7-on-7, 8-on-8, 99 would always find ways to elevate above all

President Trump says it perfectly. A patchwork of 50 different state systems creates a maze of conflicting regulations, resulting in chaos. Follow me to join the conversation on leading the AI revolution.

Questions like this make more sense if you say "After Quebec City...", otherwise 50% of the responders will say QC, and the other 50% have never seen QC

To understand how much (or little) clubs value relief pitchers these days (Diaz 3/69, Devin 3/51), compare to pitchers signed last free agent season Basically, a top relief pitcher is equivalent to an average starting pitcher: expect 6 WAR over 3 years https://t.co/63QXQORSYj

Very interesting regarding the negative seed number! As for different seeds generating potentially same values: I tried for seed of range 1 million; each generated something unique, though closest were these two values: 0.27971057030432744 (196258) 0.27971057030436375 (680232)
In today's episode of programming horror... In the Python docs of random.seed() def, we're told "If a is an int, it is used directly." [1] But if you seed with 3 or -3, you actually get the exact same rng object, producing the same streams. (TIL). In nanochat I was using the

There are ~1 SB Attempts per team per game, along with ~0.2 sac bunt attempts, and 0.1 IBB Were going to have ~4 ABS Challenges per team per game. In other words, over half the strategies managers are going to invoke in any given game will be related to ABS Are managers ready?

Whitaker should have been inducted with Alan Trammell In any case, having Jeff Kent there should make it easier for Lou Whitaker and Bobby Grich to make it. Especially if folks think fielding matters at all
