I think I saw one of them in MLB Network last week talking about those dumb stats. The Apple TV broadcasts did at least seem to improve by hiring baseball veterans behind and in front of the camera so it didn’t feel like aliens filming a baseball game last year. But there was still a lot of the silly original stats or product placement. And that weird void pregame. Mostly I’m just annoyed I’ll have to resubscribe again and look for something to watch to make it feel worthwhile. I was sure it would happen eventually but second game of the season? And 3rd is on Fox!

So that company nVenue I Googled them and their tagline is "nVenue Real-Time Micro-Bets for Sports", they aren't even trying to pretend it's anything but sports betting garbage. From their Developers page "Real-time probabilities and odds backed by machine learning and AI.", so yeah it's just completely made up then.

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:this seems uniformly negative for everyone except the NL central Yeah it basically gives 10 wins each to the handful of really terrible teams that lost 100+ games last year, and saps them all out of everyone else. Pretty dumb tbh but I'm excited to see how it stacks up to the ELITE projection systems.

Um, my interpreter made a bet that I guess I paid for that I am deeply ashamed of. If I have hurt anyone out there, I can't tell you how much I say from the bottom of my heart I'm so very, very sorry. I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith – as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos, it will be a home run. And so that will make it a 4–0 ballgame. – I don't know if I'm gonna be putting on this uniform again. I don't know if it's gonna be for the Dodgers, I don't know if it's gonna be for my bosses at Guggenheim Partners. I want to apologize for the people who sign my paycheck – for the Dodgers, for Friedman, for the people I play with, for anybody that my interpreter and I offended here. I can't begin to tell you how deeply sorry I am. That is not who I am. It never has been. And I'd like to think maybe I could have some people ... that could back that up. I am very, very sorry, and I beg for your forgiveness.

https://twitter.com/JMackeyPG/status/1772284955122430051 Paul Skenes will start the season in AAA. Pirates have him on the fast track. Drafted first overall last year, pitched in a couple games in the fall, and the word is he'll be up by July. The hype is off the charts right now.
