Macleans

By Tangotiger, 09:31 PM

Macleans is the Canadian version of Time.  Nice job by Colby.

I had a non-baseball-friend forward me that link and ask me if I knew you!  I told him, only by e-mail, just like Colby Cosh.  smile

"Tango & Cosh!”

Glad you were happy with it. It’s gotten slightly less weird to pitch saber stuff and steer it through editing (thanks, Michael Lewis), although the angle on this one was almost totally human-interest rather than technical.

Congrats Tango, you deserve it. You’re one of the best.

I think Dusty Baker might have left the first comment on the Macleans article.

Just saw the comment, which can only be characterized as “summary opinion without evidence”.  The silver lining is that he gave me a name that I googled, and I started a thread on him.

It’s really too bad that all you know how to do is linear regression. wink

Seriously, though, nice write-up.
