Just wanted to give you all a quick Work in Progress Update on the channel and what I've been working on.
* Baseball Bits is coming soon, hopefully this weekend. You won't be too surprised by the topic. The video will be titled The Year of Ohtani. That tells you everything you need to know.
* New patrons through 12/7 will have their names in the credits of this one. Thank you, new patrons!

2021-12-14 23:33:31 +0000 UTC View PostHey. I'm going to be donating last month's Patreon earnings to various charities this month. Got a lot of great suggestions from you all, so I just thought I'd list out my current plan.
LOCAL (to me)
Lost-n-Found Youth https://lnfy.org/ - Had this one come up a couple times. One patron has a friend who works there.

Hey all,
I'll try to make this brief. I'm working on a Baseball Bits for December, but I didn't make one in November. That means you all just collectively paid about $2,000 for very little on my part, just the Q&A and some Foolish Bailey stuff. And I don't even think I'm gonna do the Q&A in December.
In the holiday spirit, I'd like to give back. I want to take last month's Patreon earnings and split them between a few charities and causes. However, seeing ...

3:25 - Frank Schwindel sustainable?
We're back baby! Submit your questions for this month's video Q&A, and I'll be back to respond to them in the middle of the month. Keep in mind that the World Series will be well over by the time I get around to recording, but the offseason will be fresh and new with tons of free agents and the CBA to discuss.

2021-10-13 21:02:19 +0000 UTC View PostWelp. You all voted overwhelmingly yes on making the Patreon livestream of the NL Wild Card game available for everyone. Apparently, you all are much more generous than I am.
However, as was proposed to me by runrin, I think it would be smart to give Patrons some sort of signifier in chat. The best way to do this would actually to give you all moderator status. That would allow me to see who is a Patron in the chat, and possibly prioritize answering their questions duri...
2021-10-06 09:21:32 +0000 UTC View PostHey all,
Not sure if you tuned in to tonight's livestream of the AL Wild Card game, but it went very well. Much better than I thought it would. The VOD is available on Foolish Bailey with chat replay if you want.
I'm posing this as a question to you all.
Tomorrow is the NL Wild Card, which I originally slated as being an EXCLUSIVE STREAM FOR PATREON ONLY. However, I'm not sure if that's the right move anymore. Some patrons in the chat felt the same way. So I'm going to...
2021-10-06 03:44:28 +0000 UTC View PostHello all,
Just a reminder that I'll be livestreaming during the Wild Card games this week in lieu of the monthly video Q&A. Although I'll be happy to interact in chat and answer questions there when you have them.
My current plan is to livestream for the general public during AL Wild Card Game on Tuesday, Oct. 5th. This livestream will take place on Foolish Bailey: https://www.youtube.com/c/FoolishBa...

2021-09-14 20:01:30 +0000 UTC View PostJust wanted to give you all a quick Work in Progress update.
* Baseball Bits will be released either Tuesday or Wednesday this week. It will be a lengthy episode about of the game's most iconic legends, Rickey Henderson. It will be much less dependent on stats/analytics than my usual stuff, but there's still a unique concept at work here.
* Keep in mind, this next Baseball Bits will be sponsored, so no Patreon shoutouts until October's...

Hey all,
Just wanted to leave behind a quick Work in Progress update. The next Baseball Bits should be out this weekend, likely on Saturday. The subject is Yadier Molina, who will join the esteemed Foolish Baseball catching ranks with Jeff Mathis and Rod Barajas.
New patrons through 8/16 will have their name featured in the credits. Thank you.

This is the post where you all can drop off your questions for this month's video Q&A. Please just one question per patron. I will say that I'm planning on releasing this one much sooner than last month's, maybe on or around August 7th?

Sorry for not keeping y'all in the loop about this one. Between my vacation during the All Star break and working to get sponsor approval, I really had no clue when I was going to get this Baseball Bits out.
Keep an eye out for the next Baseball Bits in August as well, as I'll be doing Patreon thank-yous in that one.

Sorry for offsync audio again. In the future, I'll just record these with my old camera which doesn't have these problems.

Hey all,
Use this thread to drop off your Patreon Q&A question for July 2021. Just one question per patron, please.
I'll return with my answers in the middle of the month.

Just wanted to offer a work in progress update surrounding the channel(s). This week will be the 2023 season of OOTP on Foolish Bailey, and it'll be the last season before the series goes on hiatus. I definitely plan to return to it at some point, but there will be a gap before I get back to regular uploads of that series.
The 2nd update is probably much more important, which is that the next Baseball Bits will be released this weekend, likely on Saturday. It will f...

ANNOUNCEMENT! I have returned to my roots by recording an Out of the Park Baseball 22 series! It will be released Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays for the next few weeks on my 2nd channel, Foolish Bailey.

Use this thread to drop off your Patreon Q&A question for this month. Just one question per patron, please.
I'm going to start answering the questions this weekend, so I should have the video out and recorded by the 10th of the month.
Did you know we've been doing this for a year now? I just checked, and my first monthly Q&A was for June 2020. A lot has changed since then.

Hey all,
Just a quick work in progress update. I'm hoping to get the next Baseball Bits out on Saturday. It will be about the 1960 World Series. This video will be sponsored, so I won't be doing new patron thank-yous until June. Keep in mind, I already got to most of the recent pledges with the Dodgers bunting video from earlier this month.
I hope you all will enjoy this one! I've been wanting to do a more historical video, as every upload from this year has been very modern. ...
