Jeffrey and Jarrett are back from "vacation." First we have some thoughts on our late colleague, Rob McQuown. We also chat about the Mets upcoming trade deadline decisions, bad process decisions on Wilmer Font and Travis d'artaud, and finally, yes, update our Dom Smith priors. In the second half of the show we discuss the Futures Game, answer your correspondence, and talk about the professional wrestling.
This episode is dedicated to the late Rob McQuown, who left us too soon. Thanks for being a light in life Rob, we'll miss you dearly.Jon is back this week, breaking down with Mike about potential buy low candidates as the trade deadline approaches.

The Three True Outcomes--Ben, Ian, and Jared--return for 2019 to talk about rebooting the podcast. We return after over a year off with many thanks to Rob McQuown of BP for his support and encouragement. We hope to rekindle some old connections and make new ones as we branch out from talking about Scoresheet exclusively. We're going to talk primarily about Scoresheet, but also about other related topics. We hope our first episode of 2019 finds everyone well and we look forward to hearing from you!
We talk with Jonathan Judge (https://twitter.com/bachlaw) and Rob McQuown (https://twitter.com/Robmcquown), who oversee Baseball Prospectus' PECOTA projections (https://legacy.baseballprospectus.com/fantasy/dc/) to get some more insight into how the projections are made, what's new this year, and of course hip hop.

We welcome Sean Forman from Baseball Reference, David Cameron from FanGraphs, Greg Matthews from openWAR, Rob McQuown and Jonathan Judge from Baseball Prospectus to the show. With all the recent discussion about Wins Above Replacement statistics, we wanted to get people who create and maintain the statistics together to talk about how their respective stats are created and calculated. We talk about what replacement level is, positional adjustments, how to accurately portray confidence in the precision of the statistic.
