Komail, I have been following this blog for several months now and have read all of your posts. I, and I’m sure other readers, would appreciate it if you wrote more content instead of spending half your blog quoting directly from the article. Readers would get more out of your blog if you provided more commentary instead of directly quoting like it’s a newstory. Otherwise we would just read the news. You might also want to proofread as you often leave out words.
But about the MLB, I’m not sure how your hopes for transparency in relation to steroids has anything to do with this IBM software, at least as how you described it. You should check out Justin Wolfer and Hamermesh’s research about officials’ possible subconcious racism in making calls. You can find it here:

I think you’d find it pretty interesting.
