So from.what little I understand about baseball there are lots of statistics involved so utilizing said play statistics could be used a la a conputer to essentially create a matchmaking system designed to create fair games utilizing gameplay data rather than gender.
Honestly, I think some of y'all are a bit confused about the nature of some of these sports.
rather than gender
Baseball already doesn't directly discriminate based on gender. There are no rules saying women aren't allowed to play. There's certainly a societal component to why there have been literally 0 female MLB players, but I think the biological differences are much more significant.

How is this not going to produce leagues/divisions with different levels of male competition similar to boxing? Why would utilizing statistics help women compete fairly against men in a sport they already aren't prohibited from playing in? Remember, boxing only achieves (some) gender equality by specifically banning men from the women's competition.
I REALLY want to get behind these ideas, but I'm afraid there may be only 2 options: leave team sports to discriminate based on gender or abolish the sports entirely.
