    1. Palanque-Delabrouille[‘puh-LAHN-KAY deh-lah-BREW-eel”] et al modified the SALT2 fitter to also fit for this quantity. Loh and Spillar 1986 used measurements in 6 nonstandard filters to develop a template fitting method to find this quantity. In 1962 W.A. Baum used observations of the Virgo Cluster to develop another method for finding this quantity that relied heavily on the 4000 Angstrom break so it could only be used on elliptical galaxies. Differences in this quantity necessitate the (*) “K correction” of their measured magnitudes. The [OII] [“oh-two”] doublet and Silicon line at 615 nm are useful in determining this quantity for ELGs and Type Ia supernovae respectively. In the classical limit, this quantity multiplied by the speed of light gives the recession velocity. For 10 points, name this quantity, symbolized z, which indicates the degree to which the Doppler effect moves light frequency towards longer wavelengths or a certain color. ANSWER: redshift [accept z before mentioned, prompt afterwards; prompt on Doppler effect by asking “what quantity?”] 2. In 2017, this organization created an April Fools prank that involved finding the location of a fictional research facility in Verkhoyansk, Russia and fighting to free this organization’s leaders in Times Square. The founder and “Executive” of this organization is a self-described addict of Dr. Pepper and used it in the early days of this organization to fuel APK takedowns.. Recently this organization started creating official themed competiton rules such as Kingdom and Voyager cups. Moots and (*) Dronpes are the founders and leaders of this organization.

    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).

A Point-Mass Mixture Random Effects Model for Pitching Metrics James Piette, Alexander Braunstein, Blakeley B. McShane, and Shane T. Jensen Abstract A plethora of statistics have been proposed to measure the effectiveness of pitchers in Major League Baseball. While many of these are quite traditional (e.g., ERA, wins), some have gained currency only recently (e.g., WHIP, K/BB). Some of these metrics may have predictive power, but it is unclear which are the most reliable or consistent. We address this question by constructing a Bayesian random effects model that incorporates a point mass mixture and fitting it to data on twenty metrics spanning approximately 2,500 players and 35 years. Our model identifies FIP, HR/ 9, ERA, and BB/9 as the highest signal metrics for starters and GB%, FB%, and K/9 as the highest signal metrics for relievers. In general, the metrics identified by our model are independent of team defense.

  • A's News Clips, Wednesday, May 11, 2011 Oakland A's, Brett
    A’s News Clips, Wednesday, May 11, 2011 Oakland A's, Brett Anderson lose 7-2 to Texas Rangers By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune ARLINGTON, Texas -- Brett Anderson's night was a washout even before the rain hit Tuesday night. The A's left-hander has impressed this season, but the sight of a Texas Ranger digging into the batter's box brings out his worst. Anderson was gone after 42/3 innings, and a 59-minute rain delay in the sixth inning did nothing to halt an A's 7-2 defeat before 31,655 fans at Rangers Ballpark. "Yeah, the Rangers aren't my favorite team to face, that's for sure," Anderson said. "We don't play them again until like, July, so I've got a couple months to get away from them a little bit." In two starts against Texas this season, Anderson in 92/3 innings has allowed 15 hits, 11 earned runs, four homers and eight walks. In six starts against every one else, he's allowed 38 hits, eight earned runs, four walks and zero homers. Call him the anti-Cahill. A night earlier, teammate Trevor Cahill continued his mastery of the Rangers, ringing up his eighth victory in 11 starts. So what gives with Anderson? "For some reason, the Rangers kinda have my number right now," he said. "Maybe if I could turn into a right-handed sinker guy like Trevor, next time will be better." A's second baseman Mark Ellis said: "(He's) got to face them a lot in our division.
