Spent the last week "replicating" several sabersem presentations from the last sabersem. Was pretty fun! Going to highlight each one I did here. Shoutout to @srbrown70.bsky.social for the list of slides, very helpful.

Over the weekend I gave a presentation @Saberseminar about my research on torpedo bats, based on computational modeling. Experimental results are expected soon. Non-trivial result: Width of sweet spot is potentially greater for torpedo.

It was a good one. Our best yet by fundraising--we'll hit, or at least get close to, $75k total--and a ton of great talks. Happy to see everyone, happy to see a lot of students get interviews, and excited to continue growing next year.
Well. @saberseminar.bsky.social 2025 officially in the books. Thank you all. ❤️

Zack Borowiak with a great visual of "indirect" framing runs--showing how batters tend to swing more outside the zone against good framers. This value isn't captured by traditional framing models.
