I really think you're going out of your way to defend the game. Is 75% of the way there close or not? Well, I guess it depends on your perspective. But since when does OOTP necessarily have to fit...

These aren't even the major problems w/ park effects. I thought the big thing was revealed in some thread a month (or three? four?) ago....i'm too lazy to find it now. But basically, park effects...

I do understand baseball stats, thanks for your concern though.

They also tell me almost nothing about a player's looks, so what. "Value" is not always what is being measured. Though in fact,...

Homeruns during the season are useless anyhow. Right now Derrek Lee of the Cubs won't have many homers, even though he's obviously one of the best players they have. Can't think right now of someone...

I don't assume it's necessarily symmetric, but with a (basic) range of ages from 20-40, the distribution would have to be very screwy for the mean to be 28-29 and the mode to be 24.



I see what...

NO. The mode age in the major leagues is absolutely NOT 24. The average age has been around 28-29 in recent times (this has changed throughout history), and I assume the mode (for whatever its...

Who needed HR? Who needed RBI?

It's a number meant to encompass all the player's offensive contributions. Does it do that accurately? maybe, maybe not. It's another tool. If you don't want...

I agree with your first point, but not on Schmidt specifically. He retired in midseason because he just couldn't do it anymore. I don't think he would want to embarrass himself just cause some rich...

I agree with you halfway, though I don't want a player bio in the scouting report. It should acknowledge he is "past his prime," as opposed to "never making the majors," but I don't need my scout...

i'm completely lost as to what your problem is with this data. Maddux threw a lot of groundballs and gave up very few HR. where is the lack of correlation?
