SilverBullet Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Nothing big but since nobody knows who this guy is, here's a little excerpt I found about him on MLB Trade Rumors, a site he has contributed to before... Woodrum [was] among the best sabermetric analysts operating in the public sphere, and we’ll sorely miss reading [his] work. Back in 2015, Bradley Woodrum applied for a project we were launching on MLBTR: an attempt to create a model that predicts the chance of a pitcher having Tommy John surgery (updated last September). I knew Brad from his stellar work at FanGraphs and The Hardball Times. The Tommy John project was a daunting undertaking, and I was amazed by Brad’s analytical abilities, professionalism, and perseverance in getting the project to the finish line. It took the better part of a year, but Brad delivered what I considered to be the best possible TJS prediction model, given the limitations of public data. I’m proud to have hosted that work on MLBTR. Armed with the superior data of a Major League club, I expect Brad to do great things. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2018/01/dave-cameron-joins-padres-marlins-hire-bradley-woodrum.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entendu Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I hope this guy starts posting/viewing these forums, even if he doesn't reveal himself. Seems like he's got a good internet presence. Save us, Bradley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Can he pitch? I don't think so but if he can bitch he'll fit in perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marlins Phenom Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Should have bought FanGraphs and just hired them all. Then Jeter would not met his goal, would not get his bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 The real question is, have they hired a DJ yet to play all of that Latin music at the ballpark? Why do you want Dan Jennings back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
