No it doesn’t. xBA is a function of exit velocity and launch angle and takes no account for the direction in which the baseball is hit. A ball hit directly at a fielder is treated exactly the same as a ball that perfectly dissects the position of two fielders.

Based on tickets sold and some big promotions and always draw better afterApril, still think they end up above 2.2 and probably nearer to 2.3 Depends on weather,play of the team,etc. Have at least an extra 2 000 tickets sold pet game in different season plans. -
They’ve stolen 11 bases and have yet to be thrown out. Also, both BB-ref and Fangraphs have the O’s at no. 2 in baserunning runs. I’m fine with what they’re doing.

Yes they do. Basically catch probability is a function of distance needed and hang time, with some extra credit thrown in for catches made going back and on plays near the wall.

Couldn’t agree more about scoreboard watching. We just need to worry about winning 90+ games and not worry about what other teams are doing until the all-star break or so. Look at how Tampa played at the start of last year.
