Official League Records

All of them are pitchers.

History

COMMUNITY REPORTS
The remainder of this article contains lore created collaboratively by the Blaseball community.

Math Velazquez became one of the first non-human entities to play blaseball when Math began career pitching for the Houston Spies in season 1. Unconfirmed accounts suggest Math may have previously been a human who became a purely mathematical entity by unknown means. Math disputes these claims, and insists that Math has always simply been Math.

Math does not accept the usage of any pronoun to refer to Math. When asked why this was, Math returned a paper with " ${\textstyle p=0.05}$ " on it.

Season 3 Math Velazquez blaseball card.

Math Velazquez is known to have consulted with several eminent mathematicians in the hopes of developing an experimental algorithm which would allow Math to become the first blaseball player with a negative star rating. It is unknown how Math intends to achieve this, why Math considers this outcome desirable, and what impact it would have on blaseball as a whole.

Math has published academic papers theorising that achieving negative values is a first step towards opening blaseball up to ever more esoteric branches of mathematics - irrational numbers, complex numbers, and perhaps even beyond that into geometry, algebra, polyhedrons and more. Again, it is unknown why Math considers this outcome desirable, and opposing scholars have warned that success in this project could critically destabilise blaseball.

Math has been spotted spending a lot of time with recent Spies acquisition Fitzgerald Blackburn. When pressed, Math said that as Fitzgerald is a doctor in all the ways that count, xe is helping Math achieve a negative star rating, and the relationship between the two is nobody's business.
