Perhaps take all this a step or two further. With batters, add a metric of avg. feet/hr. There are others to consider also. With pitchers, add metrics of avg. Speed of each pitch, effectiveness of each pitch based on several criteria (slash line, base stats, ops+, etc.). There may be a system and formula out there already (Brooks?) But I do not think that anyone would give away proprietary info. So criteria and a formula would need to be created. I think this might add not only flavor but also real information you could use to potentially judge players. I also believe that there are many more avenues to explore along these veins.
