I just noticed that Andy Pages has a new... "best catch of the year" according to catch probability, and it's a great example of how watching the advanced stats can tell you things you won't get from watching on TV.

Bogaerts hit the ball 102.3 MPH at a 15° launch angle, and Pages covered 45 feet in 2.9 seconds and did it so efficiently he didn't even have to leave his feet. Statcast has it at just a 5% catch probability.show more

Great play by Kahlil Watson this afternoon! 30% catch... probability on this ball for now from Statcast. He actually played it so well he won't make any highlight reels, his jump was ~8 feet above average! A lesser outfielder on this play would be trailing behind Watson and have to make a more spectacular "catch" to get to this one:show more

Not to be a hater right now but this... play had an 85% catch probability. Freeman has picked it up with the bat and its great to see but I do not think he is a centerfielder at all.show more

Polish FM Sikorski: I’m in favor of the European... Union starting to have some defense capability of our own so that we don’t have to call on the United States in every emergency. We should be capable of sorting out some warlord in Libya or the Balkans next time around.show more

So much confusion on this issue .. so much... opportunity but not the requirement that some believe it is .There are countless businesses built every day that become monster businesses that do not have the founder or CEO out in front?

Colton Cowser does it again — and he earns... loud moos from Orioles fans at Camden Yards. Baltimore's center fielder robs a two-run homer to keep the Orioles in this game. Statcast gave this ball a 65% catch probability. That metric does not include factors such as the CF wall.show more

Yesterday's best outfield catch! Just a 45% catch probability.... Looks like a routine play, no? Why is it so special? Because of what happens before the camera is on PCA. This is why the eye test is poor for fielding. A +10.7 feet jump, just remarkable, allows him to cruise to the ball, covering 77 feet in 4.2 seconds. Jump is player movement in the first three seconds from pitch release. Most MLB outfielders don't catch this one, and many who do are diving...show more

This is the kind of play that eye testers... have a hard time with, but also shows why catch probability is so useful. This ball had just a 55% catch probability, and is just made to look so easy by Ceddanne Rafaela. It's all about what you don't see on the screen, because it happens before the camera is on the play. The jump is 9.0 feet above average. He was positioned well into right-center. Lesser outfielders win catch on the week on this one with a full extension dive.show more

Honored to share my perspective on the "Future of... Aviation" panel at the Saudi House here in Davos. There's so much opportunity for innovation in aviation not just at the aircraft level, but for the entire ecosystem which needs to be digitized. Our partners in the Middle East like هيئة الطيران المدني and the new administration in the U.S. have been leaning in on this opportunity, so it's going to be a very exciting time for the industry as this next wave of innovation takes hold.
