didn't BP predict 72-90?

DJ: ...Not in the minds of the coaching staff or the front office.
Hawk: Well, nobody could see it coming. It's just that simple.

Then: DJ: Nobody knew or could have foreseen the Sox playing the way they have this year. If anybody could have explained it to them earlier in the year [Ozzie] probably would have slapped him in the head and walked away.

later...DJ:...It's been uncanny, nobody could truly explain it. Nobody foresaw this kind of turnaround.

Yeah, but Baseball Prospectus aren't you know, in the know.

Not quite really.

So what the fuck do they know?

Nate Silver has an AWESOME blog about burritos by the way - he links it in his chat today.

It is really impressive actually.
