No you can't
If you did then you would be on the road 250 days a years being paid by one of 30 different clubs.
And then you could only tell who was better a small % of the time.
I highly doubt you are one of the people I described above. I do not care how much baseball you have watched. You DO NOT have the ability to determine a players worth just by watching them except in the most extreme of cases.
So no...you don't have the magical ability to judge a players value by just watching him.
That is where statistics come into play. You take the players output and then compare it against another players output by using many different ways of interputting his output.
You then have the ability to a certain degree of success to tell if a player is better than another play.
VORP is just one of the tools. I am glad it is in the game. The more stats packed into the game, the better.
