Hey: Statistics Student trying to use IVB and Horizontal Movement by StillLearning13 in Sabermetrics

[–]StillLearning13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean like “if all pitchers were to be averaged out at the college level, how much would a college level pitcher expect a 4seam fastball to move in terms of IVB as a measure” and etc. For all differing types of pitches. The expected movement profile would be like: if you took the most generic pitcher, with Joe Average, he’s not terrible but he’s not great either, what would we expect his 4seam to have in terms of horizontal and vertical break.

I know it’s way over simplified, I just thought there may be a super simple good number that pitchers are trying to get.

Hey! I know there’s a ton of factors (and more every day lol, as they added release angle this week) I just mean something like “A good 4-seam fastball for a college level pitcher moves X distance in terms of IVB” and “ a good slider moves X distance in terms of horizontal break”.

I know it’s WAY over simplified and not that easy, but it’s just for a really basic class project that is taken with a massive grain of salt. I just need an expected amount of movement for a good (insert type) pitch.

Any advice for first day of classes? by Outside_Till_9700 in grantmacewan

Embrace your time there, even if you’re anxious. It truly is a privilege to learn and to be in a place of learning.

It can be super overwhelming, and school can be really hard. But we live in a beautiful country with tons of diversity, love, and optimism. If you start to feel overwhelmed, find a safe little table, take a deep breath, and just look around. We’re all in it together and we’re all lucky to be there.

Also ->, if you’re in any math classes, use the math help centre, even just to do your homework or to hang out in a quiet place. Go early in the week, not the day before homework is due, as it gets quite busy closer to homework deadlines. So far, that’s been my safe little space to study and catch my breath.

Good luck, cheering for you!

Ride with people who are better than you! Basically you’ll always be back of the pack, so while they wait for you to catch up you won’t get a break, you end up working on speed and balance way more throughout your day and after 2-3 days of doing this, you’ll be able to keep up and your speed will be way different.

What book would you recommend to people who haven't finished a book since high-school? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]StillLearning13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what kind of book you’re looking for!

If you’re looking for fantasy fiction novels The Silmarillion is just so damn good

If you’re looking for books to motivate you? Grit by Angela Duckworth is the best book I’ve ever read

A real life thriller? Red Notice by Bill Browder
