FanGraphs’ preseason projection system last year gave the Orioles just a 1.3 percent chance of winning the American League East. MLB Network’s “Shredder” system recently did not have Ozzie Albies as a top 10 second baseman. An artificial intelligence model used by students at Johns Hopkins University crunched all the numbers after the 2023 season and predicted Corey Seager as the AL MVP. These examples show that computers can be fallible just like humans when it comes to evaluating baseball.
The reliance on artificial intelligence and statistical models to rank lineups, rotations, and bullpens has become prevalent in recent years. However, despite their sophistication, these systems often overlook intangible factors that can greatly impact performance on the field.
The Limitations of AI-Generated Rankings
Let’s begin the 2024 installment exercise today with the lineups. And remember, AI was not necessary to come up with these inaccurate guesses. I did them all by myself!
This statement highlights an important truth – human judgment carries significant weight in ranking baseball lineups accurately.
While AI models might analyze vast amounts of data and project player performances based on historical trends, they struggle to account for emerging talent or players who are not yet well-known but poss

The Belgian club fires the player after the photo with the competition’s shirt: “Unacceptable”
NOS Football•
Footballer Moussa Sissako was expelled from his club RWDM, active at the highest level in Belgium, for openly wearing the shirt of competitor KV Kortrijk.
Sissako, who will no longer be able to play this season due to injury, posted a photo of himself on Instagram wearing his brother Abdoulaye’s shirt. He is active for Kortrijk, who also play in the Belgian Pro League. Earlier this month the brothers met at the competition.
“This is unacceptable,” RWDM director Maxime Vossen told Walloon newspaper Sudinfo. “Even if Moussa is not a bad person and wishes the club the best, it is an attitude we cannot accept.”
For director Vossen it doesn’t matter that the shirt belonged to his brother: “You can’t appear in the clothes of a direct competitor.”

The latter is strongly denied by RWDM. The player himself cou
