StatSpeak

Dan is putting a callout:

With that, I am putting out a call to the readers of Statistically Speaking, asking for your help. We would all like to keep this blog going full time, and it will be a difficult task to do once Matt undoubtedly wins BP Idol. So if you are interested in writing for StatSpeak, send me and email at .

He also said that Pizza was leaving, which means it’s as bad a news for us as it is good for whoever gets his time. And presuming he’s making a rational decision, even better for the recipients.

The recipient of Pizza’s time will be his newborn daughter. Looks like a rational decision to me.

Thanks for posting this. Yes, Pizza is leaving due to the birth of his daughter.

When the decision is both the most rational and most emotional reason, you know it was correct.

I promise I’m still around. ‘Tis true that I am leaving StatSpeak (for the most part… I still have my login privileges), but I’m not completely out of the Sabermetrics business. Most of my old “hobby time” will go to taking care of my daughter ("Take Me Out to the Ballgame” makes a fantastic lullaby) in the short term, but I will be running a few numbers here and there. (I was actually running some stuff last night.) As to what happens to that stuff, I’ve got a few options that are open-ended right now, and at some point, I’ll pick one (or several) of them. But for right now, it’s nice to just relax and make faces at my daughter.
