A snippet from a Jonas Siegel article about how Matthews is looking healthwise these days:
If you have a smartwatch or fitness tracker of some sort, this will be familiar: an algorithm that calculates a readiness score based on some current measures relative to baseline (heart rate variability, resting heart rate, skin/body temp, any records of recent exercise loads, etc.). On consumer devices the algorithms are hit or miss; for Andy O'Brien's team, probably a bit more dialed in, especially with the biometric trackers the players wear during games and practices.
CJ mentioned that Chris Tanev wanted to get back into the game when he was pulled. I'm guessing something in the biomarkers got red-flagged.
Chayka is a data and fitness and data-fitness obsessive, so hopefully this pays off.
Fun bit from the same article:
