My mother passed away in 2008. I’d give everything I own to sit with her one last time.

The joy of living in NYC is meeting strangers that just might change your life. In the 1980s I met guitarist Vernon Reid in an East Village record shop and he invited me to join the budding Black Rock Coalition. Within weeks, my world was different. evergreenreview.com/read/tal…
@dwainmcgarland This is truly a fantastic article on an all encompassing level on the better reads of articulation gleaned from extensive data research..succinct 🎯🎯🎯 thank you for your hard work
Fantastic article Dwain! The effort it takes to compile such a wealth of information and insightful stats is incredible. Love the in depth breakdown of each player that moved or didn’t move the needle and the deep dive into formations and the effects on WR with 12, 13 etc. 💪

At some point, baseball has to get back to valuing ballplayers and not just numbers on a screen. Give me the Freddie Freemans, the Buster Poseys, Hunter Pences, Pablo Sandovals, Michael Youngs, Ian Kinslers of the world. Guys who just flat out know how to play the game. Everyone wants to talk launch angle and exit velo, but what happened to valuing a quality at bat?” The 9-pitch battle that might end in an out, but forces a pitcher to show everything he’s got.
The guy who hits behind the runner, takes what’s given, or just refuses to give a pitcher an easy inning. Those at-bats might not look sexy in the box score, but they show up in the 7th, 8th, and 9th. Some of these dudes could absolutely leave the yard too. That’s the point. They weren’t one-dimensional. Somewhere along the way, we confused measurable tools with knowing how to win baseball games.
I’m not against analytics or hitting the ball hard, but there is an art to winning that you can’t fully measure. We need more guys who know how to play baseball, not just hitters, not just athletes, ballplayers. And I promise you, those dudes never go out of style
