January 11, 20188 yr How long before this guy requests to be traded to a different analytics department?
January 11, 20188 yr "okay Bradley, how do we get the best out of our new good players?" "lol what good players?"
January 12, 20188 yr 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
January 12, 20188 yr How many people can say they have heard of many analytics guys? Probably just Brian Kenny, @pollythewog , and this guy... [ATTACH]1708._xfImport[/ATTACH]
January 12, 20188 yr 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.
January 12, 20188 yr Author I don't think so but if he can bitch he'll fit in perfectly. Well played.
January 12, 20188 yr Probably just Brian Kenny, @pollythewog , and this guy... [ATTACH]1708[/ATTACH] lol of course I've heard of him. Good hire
January 12, 20188 yr Should have bought FanGraphs and just hired them all. Then Jeter would not met his goal, would not get his bonus.
January 13, 20188 yr 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?
January 13, 20188 yr Author Why do you want Dan Jennings back? Isn't he still playing for the White Sox?
January 13, 20188 yr Isn't he still playing for the White Sox? Pretty sure it was the Rays last time I checked.
January 13, 20188 yr Tomatoe, tomato Ummm, I don't think you know what that phrase means and who spells it tomatoe anyways?
January 13, 20188 yr Author Ummm, I don't think you know what that phrase means and who spells it tomatoe anyways? All the cool kids do.
