Yaxel was in the running for the award with a 20% usage rate. Oscar Tshibwe won the award with a usage rate of 23%. When Anthony Davis won it he had a usage rate of 18.8%!
Not sure it would even test that theory in this case. The non-conference schedule is so heavily weighted towards opponents that are either Q4 or Q1A, that I think it wouldn't make that much of an impact if they did consider it. The committee is not going to cut us a break for losing to Jackson...

Not a "fleecing." Classic trade that addresses different areas of need for each team. Brewers needed May for their postseason run with Woodruff now out for the season, and had a lot of talent stocked up in the farm. These two guys are both at least a...
Detroit did well but so did LA. Hope is a great prospect, ranked #25 by MLB pipeline. But The Dodgers still have 3 OF prospects ranked even higher somehow. So to them, he was expendable.
I kinda think the lockout makes Dodgers' hopes of signing Skubal higher. It's almost certain that if a...
Maybe if they get cut? As it is they both have 3-year deals. If they don't get cut I can't imagine they'd just be able to break the contract to come back. Deadline to cut down to 53-man roster is Aug. 30.
I dunno...is it?
I kinda think this version is superior to the version where the SEC dominated the entire national scene by virtue of being the most willing to cheat, and the best at PR-ing itself into the title game every year.
