@gregorMLBFor those still worried about R.A. Dickey's start to the season, he currently has a lower ERA than David Price. #BlueJays

With Coco Crisp going to left field, #Athletics have given up the DH for the fifth time in 16 games.

Wong at second base. 5 4
worth noting that 1) Gyorko has been on fire recently, and 2) it was discussed earlier in the game that Wong has the flu
he made 2 errors in the 3 hour long bottom of the 6th inning that followed. one is officially recorded, the other wasn't (the second to last play of the inning, an easy double play was interrupted by a throw to Wong that he held onto just long enough to record the out at second and then drop before throwing to first)

lots of interesting stuff here: http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/how-our-2016-mlb-predictions-work/
the URL suggests that it only discusses 2016, but it also discusses some of the methdology behind the Complete History of MLB interactive tool thing.
there's a list of all-time pitcher peaks, and you'll never believe who #9 is! /buzzfeed but no seriously, it's very surprising. also:
The biggest mismatch of all time according to our pitcher scores was a 137-point Elo swing back in 1997, when Randy Johnson (+87) faced Ricky Bones (-50).
good to know

While MLB agreed to test players immediately upon their return, the prospect of a positive test and forgoing unprotected sex for up to six months does not rest well with many.
