the abs challenge adds a whole new layer of strategy to the game—when do you burn a challenge? the nba challenge system feels like the closest comp with many coaches saving a challenge towards the end of the game. the main difference is that, in baseball, we can attribute expected run value across every situation to determine the best counts to challenge a close ball or strike. regardless of inning, the best times for a challenge are when there are runners on base (ideally multiple) and the batter is deeper in the count. https://x.com/tangotiger/status/2024337789408494079?s=46&t=dGdml54Bn5gAjlxSoZTivg
