Strength Ratings Explained
Within this publication you will find references to four sets of Strength Ratings: Team PR, Effective Runs,
Starting Pitching and Bullpen. Here is an explanation of each:
• The Team Power Ratings (PR) are my own manually adjusted ratings updated after every game based
upon analysis of live action and box scores.
• The Effective Runs are purely statistical ratings, using the teams’ key stats against schedule strength and
their previous opponents’ averages. These are also adjusted for any key injuries the team had endured or
faced against.
• The starting pitcher rankings are a combination of each of the current pitchers in that team’s rotation.
Players are replaced when designated with lengthy injuries.
• The bullpen ratings are a collective analysis of the entire relief staff, again with an emphasis on both talent
and performance.

New York Yankees
2023 Season
Preview
By Adam Burke
We’ve
known for a long
time that there have been,
ahem, inconsistencies with the
baseballs used in the Major Leagues.
There was the jumpy, super-juiced ball of
2019, in which the Seattle Mariners’ 1997
record of 264 homers was topped by FOUR
teams, including the Yankees, who finished second with 306.
Then there was the dead ball season of 2022, in which we saw the lowest batting average
(.243) since 1968 and the lowest slugging percentage (.395) since 2014. Mysteriously, the dead
ball didn’t stop Aaron Judge from setting a new American League record for home runs, busting
Roger Maris’s record of 61 in ‘61 with 62 round-trippers. The Yankees also hit 254 homers as a
team, 11 more than the Braves and 35 more than the third-place Brewers.
An Insider investigation authored by Bradford William Davis prominently featured astrophysicist

Dr. Meredith Wills, who has been studying baseballs for the last several seasons, and the two
uncovered some interesting findings. Armed with existing data that suggested that there was a
change to the baseball around mid-May that led to more offense and more home runs, it was
clear that at least two different baseballs were used during the season.
However, the research of Wills and the Insider crew found a third baseball, nicknamed
“Goldilocks”. A disproportionate amount of these balls were used in the playoffs and also in
Yankees games.
The Yankees didn’t need help - and MLB vehemently denies the results of the study. They were
a good team regardless and would have likely been a division champion and a World Series
contender without the boosted balls. They were on an historic pace at 70-34 through 104
games, but went just 29-29 over the final 58 games, when most of the balls were said to be in
use.
New York has had 10 straight postseason appearances without an AL Pennant,

let alone a World Series ring. In hopes of ending that streak, the Yankees
2023 Odds won the Judge sweepstakes to keep him in pinstripes and signed
Carlos Rodon to bolster the rotation. Will that be enough to
reach this season’s high expectations?

of the many reasons why the Yankees have held onto 21-year-old
Anthony Volpe, who will debut this season after finishing last
year at Triple-A. He’s +1100 to win AL Rookie of the Year and Aaron Judge
is having a fine spring. He may even beat Peraza out for the
starting shortstop role.
In bringing back Rizzo and Judge, the Yankees have two

cornerstones and still have Stanton, who probably makes the
most violent contact of any hitter all-time when he puts the
barrel to the ball. Mix in proven veterans like Torres, Josh
Donaldson and playoff hero Harrison Bader (great glove,
mauls LHP) with the youngsters like Volpe, Peraza and
Cabrera and there is a ton to like about this lineup. Sour
grapes aside about the baseballs and the playoffs as a
Guardians fan, it’s hard to see the Yankees performing
much below last season’s numbers, even accounting for
regression from Judge off of a career year.
Health will always be the question, though. In a highly

competitive division with a right-handed-heavy lineup
that is susceptible to striking out against above average
or better righties, the Yankees will need all hands on
deck as often as possible to reach lofty expectations.
NEW YORK YANKEES PITCHING

Money doesn’t always buy talent, but one thing
it absolutely does is give a team the ability to
embrace risk. The risk was low when the Yankees
signed Gerrit Cole prior to the 2020 season.
The risk is decidedly higher with the signing of
Carlos Rodon prior to the 2023 season. Rodon
signed a six-year, $162 million deal in mid-

How New
MLB Rules
Will
Impact
Betting By Adam Burke
Major League Baseball is going to look

a lot different in 2023. A handful of rule
changes are likely to have a significant
impact on betting the game. At least
with these – unlike the baseball, which
changes from season to season – we
know what they are and they are well-
defined. Players got a crash course in
how they would be implemented and
enforced in Spring Training and the data
was rather eye-opening.
The three main rule changes are the pitch

clock, bigger bases and a ban on infield
shifts. I’ll break these down one by one

and the potential impact for bettors.
