How 49ers' NFL Draft homework on a 'frat guy' prospect landed them a perennial Pro Bowler
If the San Francisco 49ers ever need a reminder that “character” concerns can get overblown leading up to the NFL Draft, they need only glance at their 10-year wall.In the run-up to the 2017 draft, team officials had to reconcile the unique skills they saw in a certain prospect with a few unfavorable reports coming from his college program.

Everyone in the league is adjusting not only to the ABS challenge system, but...
Updated MLB starting pitcher rankings, with forecasts for the rest of the season
Hitters give us tiny bits of information in a drip-by-drip fashion. We learn just a little about them with every at-bat. It’s hard to actually see the signal occurring that way, however, because there’s still so much noise in what’s happening in each at-bat.Pitchers give us big bursts of information. By the end of the season, the bulkiest starting pitchers will match and even surpass hitters in terms of plate appearances affected, but the pace at which that information comes in is so different....
