a place where all members of the 'Science is Cool' fantasy baseball league can comments on K/BB ratios, the Yankees threadbare rotation, knuckleballs, moneyballs, Steve and his lawnmower, the comparative merits of Panera Bread vs Cosi, Spring Training reminiscences, bike week, classic photos of all the above, Lady Gaga videos, interesting links and anything else that springs to mind.

Do Hot Streaks Exist?
Interesting analysis from fangraphs suggesting that just because a player is in a hot streak, there is no evidence it will continue. However, this analysis looks at aggregated player data - within that there will be some players who continue to be on fire, and some who cool down. No idea how you pick the right ones but maybe you just grab anyone who is hot, and cut them if they start to suck.
