Ever wonder whether certain authors are tailsmans for the Phillies? How about which guarantee a poor outcome for the team? 81 games in to the season, we can start to analyze these effects with confidence.
Throughout this season, I have been keeping meticulous records of game recap standings in which each writer's performance in influencing wins and losses has been recorded. The goal of this project was to provide analysis that might be valuable when the Phillies play meaningful games. Think about it: Game 7 of the 2018 NLCS. Do we want John Stolnis to recap the game or should we make a call to the bullpen and bring in RyneHorde to lead us to victory?
