If you follow me on Twitter, you know I occasionally share the Houston Astros‘ postseason and World Series percentages tracked by FanGraphs. I’ve mentioned this before, but these add perspective when Astros’ fans on social media and my son are figuratively diving off cliffs after a loss or two, especially if they occur on consecutive days.
Those numbers are generated by an algorithm that’s intended to give fans an expectation of a team’s chances at a division title, Wild Card berth and World Series win at any given point in the season.
