What's Buzzing

Michael Schwab

Bagwell isn’t against analytics. They just think analytics has a place and shouldn’t be the end all be all. But that ends up being like 80% baseball knowledge and 20% analytics. It can’t work that way anymore

SFA has never lost to Duke in men's basketball

11h

Answer me this. If Bagwell has so much influence in the Astros front office, and he’s 100% anti-analytical, which many Astros fans seem convinced of, then why were the 3 Driveline employees and Flores hired?
