With about an eighth of the season behind us, some trends are becoming apparent, like the fact that no one can hit anymore and actually getting on base without hitting a home run is a relic of the past. That may be a small exaggeration, but baseball is changing and the Baseball Rabbi is here to explain what's happening today, and where we may be going tomorrow (goodbye, launch angle, hello small ball!). Are we in a golden age of pitching and defense? Why is the MLB batting average historically low? And what additional metric that almost NO ONE is discussing can explain a lot of what's going on? Plus: why 2020 stats are completely stupid even if we ignore the fact that the season was 60 games long.
