Their expected records were nearly identical over the long regular season. Same with third-order metrics.

What a great response! The Dodgers were just as good as the Brewers this year. The small sample postseason outcomes don’t change that.
I see more of an opportunity than a problem. Fill that gap with insightful video tracking content.

All those things he mentions have tremendous value. But so does analytics. One doesn't have to negate the other.
Just took my son to his first basketball practice. Left him with a John Wooden quote: “Be quick, but don’t hurry.”

The Brewers joined an exclusive list this week. No team had done this since 1990 - not even the Dodgers!

Interesting. Whenever I hear announcers talk about "the running game wearing down the defense", I assumed it wore down the offense at the same rate or even more, since defensive fronts sub way more often.

The Brewers became the first team since the 1988-90 A's to lead the league in both winning percentage and run differential in consecutive seasons and win the World Series.

Great point! This becomes even more important in the postseason when the number of 98+ pitches increases.

Very impressive - especially the drive charts. The sports world needs more content like this.

People are missing something else: Everything the Brewers are doing was happening long before this postseason started.

Not at all. They're both small samples. The Yankees were better than the Rays in the regular season.

Interesting list. It doesn’t happen nearly as often due to expanded playoffs.
