This is an accurate depiction of what this thread (or any thread with maverick) is.
Ugh...remind me again if your educational background when it comes to math or stats. I mean this pic implies i am a half brain and you and your buddies are smarter. But I have yet to hear that you have ever studied math or stats let alone used then in any meaningful way.
You are a halfbrain because you are unable to comprehend that you’re wrong on so many levels. Not being able to recognize or admit being wrong is a sign of true stupidity.
If you think stats are so complicated that somebody needs a math degree to understand them, that tells a lot about you.
Oh, now I get it. Thanks for letting me know that I am wrong. Not all stats are complicated but sabermetrics is. Can you explain the methodology to get WAR? If not then clearly you need a larger knowledge base.
If they aren’t complicated could you calculate it Right now if you had to? Or would you need to get more educated on the topic
It’s amazing how you still don’t understand. It’s a formula, and you plug numbers into it. Nobody needs to remember the entire formula, that’s why we have webisites that do it for us. I don’t understand why that’s so hard for you to comprehend.
It just seems like you’re the one that doesn’t understand any of it, because you keep asking us even after multiple people have given you the formula and explained how it’s calculated and what it means.

You don’t seem to understand that if you only know how to plug the number in without understanding the underlying operations and why they are relevant than you Don’t know why a number is relevant or what it’s measuring.
For example mean, median and mode are all methods to find central tendency in a data set. But understanding when each is relevant to use is as important as knowing what numbers to plug in. If you took a basic stats class you would understand that.

None of which useful in demonstrating how wRC+ is allegedly based on WAR.
This is another instance where you've made an oversimplified and exaggerated statement with which you are now stuck with because you are physically unable to admit when you're wrong.
It's an interesting psychological phenomenon which we are witnessing.

Guys! Stop! Unless you’ve taken college statistics it is impossible for you to understand a stat in regards to sports so just stop! It’s impossible.
Sabermetrics is using some complex statistical analysis. Possibly too complex. And for most people not only do they not understand HOW some of them are conceived but the underlying principles that go into it.
For example being that you wanted to comment. Please answer the following
-
What is the TOTAL formula used to determine WAR.
-
What statistical procedure are used and why.
-
What are some principles used to determine which procedures to use.
Most people including yourself can’t answer that
Here is the formula for WAR
I've already shared the formula for wRC+.
Now show me how wRC+ is BASED on WAR (not just use some of the same components).
Your Copy paste skills are next level. Yeah but to truly understand it you need to explain or at least understand the how the component variables are created and the reason why. Do you understand league adjustment. Why are those stats added. Do they have equal bake and how do you know this. If not should there be a coefficient.
Whatever dude, you have no idea clearly. But please talk amongst yourselves. You all seem to have a clue.
Yes, like I said - I'm copy pasting it because it saves me time.
You asked for the full formula so I gave it to you.
Ok I am sure it has nothing to do with you not being able to put it into your own words. Ok...last word is yours. You are just not knowledgeable enough to have a conversation about sabermetrics. This is just silly at this point. Like I said like explaining a lightning to a baboon
I'll say it again because you missed the 2nd half of the comment.
wRC+ uses weighted runs above average and league averages but to say that because it uses those it is therefore based on WAR and the entire summation that makes up WAR is a ridiculous statement.
That's great.
Also, you requesting me to rephrase a mathematical formula is downright ridiculous.
It's like requesting me to rephrase a2+b2=c2...
Nope i am requesting nothing from you. I am done if you are done...
Btw that formula states that there is a specific and constant relationship that exists between the sides of a right triangle.
More importantly, this is based on proofs and theorems that exist objectively in geometry and algebra.WAR is NOT something that has the necessary underlying proof work or theorems that would make it valid. Trust me when I say that WAR has not gone under the level of scrutiny via proofs that Pythagorean’s theorem has. Wait did you just compare the Pythagorean theorem with sabermetrics.
Oh wait, I am sorry I went over your head.
Anyway. To answer your question..I request nothing. I have nothing left to add that you could comprehend

Nope, and I never asserted that WAR is comparable to Pythagora's statement. Whether or not you agree with its usability as a metric for measuring the abilities of a baseball player is irrelevant. It is a mathematical formula just the same. (The fact that you actually believe that what you just said is somehow complicated is hilarious - this is literally first grade elementary school material)
Again, none of that shows how wRC+ is - allegedly - based on WAR.
Keep dancing around it though because we all know why you're doing it.
Alternatively, you can also simply not respond and thus demonstrate how you've been wrong all along.

Can I ask that you do one big favor for me? Can you take random MLB players from any era maybe like 20 random guys from one position. The more random the better. HOF, joe Carter level, Alex Gordon level and Luis Polonia level.
Could you find their WAR and there wRC+ And find the r between those two data sets. As I am sure you know that r will probably be between 1.0 and 0.9. Can you explain why that happens.
I am not smart enough to understand but I think with your statistical mastery you could figure it all out. Or don’t just wake away knowing that you are a statistical prodigy

Here are the stats of Mark McGwire from 1993:
wRC+ 211 - WAR 1.5
Notice how your narrative is instatly shattered? Because wRC+ doesn't for example take into account games played?
Why is it that Ty Cobb had a 206 wRC+ and a 10.3 WAR, but the next season had a 11.0 WAR but only a 189 wRC+? Should they not increase in conjunction? Why is that Mike Trout, playing also CF had only a 167 wRC+ while still having a 10.1 WAR? It's almost as if there are some differences in how these statistics are achieved?

Great point, that is why you shouldn’t use a single year but their career numbers. But I thought you would have figured that out.
Ah I see - but wouldn't the numbers of a single season be the same as career numbers if wRC+ was BASED on WAR? Why exactly would it change?
Notice also the seasonal numbers from Trout and Cobb above.
Ty Cobb had a 206 wRC+ and a 10.3 WAR, but the next season had a 11.0 WAR but only a 189 wRC+? Should they not increase in conjunction? Why is that Mike Trout, playing also CF had only a 167 wRC+ while still having a 10.1 WAR? It's almost as if there are some differences in how these statistics are achieved?
How about Mickey Mantle.
In 1955 he had a wRC+ of 179 and a WAR of 9.8
In 1964 he had a wRC+ of 176 and a WAR of 5.5Curious.
To be honest I'm not even sure what you are requesting because wRC+ is measured as a career avg and WAR is measured cumulatively - so what would be the point in comparing career statistics between the two? Do you want me to manually calculate the cumulative sum of various players total wRC+? Considering I was able to find the above differences with such a quick search do you not think I would be able to find similar differences from this type of a search as well?

Sabermetrics is using some complex statistical analysis. Possibly too complex. And for most people not only do they not understand HOW some of them are conceived but the underlying principles that go into it.
For example being that you wanted to comment. Please answer the following
-
What is the TOTAL formula used to determine WAR.
-
What statistical procedure are used and why.
-
What are some principles used to determine which procedures to use.
Most people including yourself can’t answer that
Here is the formula for WAR
I've already shared the formula for wRC+.
Now show me how wRC+ is BASED on WAR (not just use some of the same components).
Your Copy paste skills are next level. Yeah but to truly understand it you need to explain or at least understand the how the component variables are created and the reason why. Do you understand league adjustment. Why are those stats added. Do they have equal bake and how do you know this. If not should there be a coefficient.
Whatever dude, you have no idea clearly. But please talk amongst yourselves. You all seem to have a clue.
Yes, like I said - I'm copy pasting it because it saves me time.
You asked for the full formula so I gave it to you.
Ok I am sure it has nothing to do with you not being able to put it into your own words. Ok...last word is yours. You are just not knowledgeable enough to have a conversation about sabermetrics. This is just silly at this point. Like I said like explaining a lightning to a baboon
I'll say it again because you missed the 2nd half of the comment.
wRC+ uses weighted runs above average and league averages but to say that because it uses those it is therefore based on WAR and the entire summation that makes up WAR is a ridiculous statement.
That's great.
Also, you requesting me to rephrase a mathematical formula is downright ridiculous.
It's like requesting me to rephrase a2+b2=c2...
Nope i am requesting nothing from you. I am done if you are done...
Btw that formula states that there is a specific and constant relationship that exists between the sides of a right triangle.
More importantly, this is based on proofs and theorems that exist objectively in geometry and algebra.WAR is NOT something that has the necessary underlying proof work or theorems that would make it valid. Trust me when I say that WAR has not gone under the level of scrutiny via proofs that Pythagorean’s theorem has. Wait did you just compare the Pythagorean theorem with sabermetrics.
Oh wait, I am sorry I went over your head.
Anyway. To answer your question..I request nothing. I have nothing left to add that you could comprehend
5000 IQ Redditor right here guys, just admit it, we're no match
Cool. I am going to wait for you to say something interesting or relevant.

Can I ask that you do one big favor for me? Can you take random MLB players from any era maybe like 20 random guys from one position. The more random the better. HOF, joe Carter level, Alex Gordon level and Luis Polonia level.
Could you find their WAR and there wRC+ And find the correlation between those two data sets. As I am sure you know that r will probably be between 1.0 and 0.9. Can you explain why that happens.
I am not smart enough to understand but I think with your statistical mastery you could figure it all out.
Ahh, I see - so you aren't done after all? How unfortunate and yet so predictable.
Here are the stats of Mark McGwire from 1993:
wRC+ 211 - WAR 1.5
Notice how your narrative is instatly shattered? Because wRC+ doesn't for example take into account games played?
Great point, that is why you shouldn’t use a single year but their career numbers. But I thought you would have figured that out.
Ah I see - but wouldn't the numbers of a single season be the same as career numbers if wRC+ was BASED on WAR? Why exactly would it change?
Notice also the seasonal numbers from Trout and Cobb above.
Ty Cobb had a 206 wRC+ and a 10.3 WAR, but the next season had a 11.0 WAR but only a 189 wRC+? Should they not increase in conjunction? Why is that Mike Trout, playing also CF had only a 167 wRC+ while still having a 10.1 WAR? It's almost as if there are some differences in how these statistics are achieved?
Oh boy.
You really don’t know how to do this do you? For a second I thought you might know what you were talking about and we could’ve had some fun.
Well you wanted me to admit when I was wrong. I was dead wrong thinking you had a clue about statistical analysis.Dude, never mind. Let go back to when I was sorry about not knowing or whatever I said two post ago. Beliebve what you want dude. You are right. Just don’t apply for a job that requires any level of depth with statistical analysis.

@skepple15 said in Jimmie Foxx is unjammable:
.264/.309/.498
.269/.320/.511
Just wanted to go to a point brought up in another thread
That's Joe Carters "great" 1992 season in which he finished 3rd in MVP voting, compared to Eduardo Escobar's 2019 season
I guess the one stats class I took in university really helped me make that comparison...
.257/.317/.401 - Cal Ripken's splits from 1989 when he also finished 3rd in MVP voting.
Comparing specific players from different eras often doesn't work well. Advanced stats are certainly useful but they do not tell the whole story.
Carter was by no means a superstar, but overall he was an above average player compared to the other players of his era.

You really are quick to respond.
Here's what I added to the above post.
"How about Mickey Mantle.
In 1955 he had a wRC+ of 179 and a WAR of 9.8
In 1964 he had a wRC+ of 176 and a WAR of 5.5Curious.
To be honest I'm not even sure what you are requesting because wRC+ is measured as a career avg and WAR is measured cumulatively - so what would be the point in comparing career statistics between the two? Do you want me to manually calculate the cumulative sum of various players total wRC+? Considering I was able to find the above differences with such a quick search do you not think I would be able to find similar differences from this type of a search as well?"
And If I show you two players with the same career WAR but a different cumulative wRC+ for their entire career, then what?

What am I suppose to do with this. You are failing at insulting me or proving me wrong. I think it’s because you don’t seem to have a point.why are you even bothering commenting. Is it because with all the bad posts you have made I am the only one who gives you attention. Do you just need a hug? I may know a bit about stats but you are beyond my ability comprehend.
