Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 1 original post for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.
A typical post picks up 6.1K interactions against 140K followers, an engagement rate of 4.35%. Posts are seen about 141K times each, and 4.29% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 101.4% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.1 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 10% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 17:00 UTC, and Wednesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 1 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 6.1K interactions. Only 1 original post have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 17:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 100% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 0% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | -3% | -3% to -2% | 54K |
- 100% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 0% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
- Its average post runs 157 characters, which falls in the 80 - 180 characters band. Across the catalog, posts of 80 to 180 characters run 3% below the same accounts' other posts.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

Oswaldo Cabrera is one of the finest people that I have ever met in this game. I wish him all the best and will forever root for him! https://t.co/gDZCgtZDq2

Rob Thomson made himself available to reporters on Tuesday, which is rather rare for a manager who just lost his job. Here's why he did: “If you’re an accountable person, if you’re a leader, you’re going to stand up in front of people and answer the questions when it’s all over. And I just wanted to make sure that I did that in the right way. It’s like the last four years, I hope that people feel like, whether I did a good job or a bad job, I represented this organization properly, with class and with dignity. So this is all part of it to me.”

Interesting defensive drill by the Yankees right now. With a man on first and no outs, the Yankees are practicing letting pop ups to the right side drop so they can dupe the runners and try to turn a DP. Circumstances must be right. But remember this tweet if it happens this year
