20k people is literally nothing.
It is literally 20k dead people, actually. Your opinion may be that it is figuratively nothing. You say you went to college?
We fought the 2 longest wars in American history for an attack that killed less than 1/6 of that many people. So I guess I would say that it is both literally and figuratively something.
Lol...oh you believe he went to college. Here are the only ways he went to college. He works in the food court. He went on a tour, or he registered for a remedial class.
“If everyone was a slave the unemployment would be zero”
Since you obviously don't understand this concept, allow me to explain. If everyone were a slave, the unemployment rate would in fact be zero. Everyone would have a job, just no salary. That is what is wrong with solely looking at unemployment rate. Sure the unemployment rate is low under Trump, but how many of those jobs pay a living wage or salary? The answer is not nearly enough. Over half of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Children who were born into unfortunate situations have to wonder where their next meal is coming from. Thirty percent of Americans are uninsured. Why does it matter what the unemployment rate is when so many are suffering?
I really wish you didn't explain this. I was enjoying him constantly demonstrating his stupidity by quoting it and not understanding. Kid is a real goober
You are a liberal who thinks lebron james is better than michael jordan.
Yes. You can read. Remember the last time a liberal gov screwed up the country. I can’t. FDR, JFK, LBJ, Clinton and Obama all made the country better.
Every major US economic catastrophe can be traced back to specific policies of a conservative anti-regulation, pro business government. Even the rare conservative Gov that does well it is typically on the heels of a liberal or democratic government.
If conservatives like you read books and knew facts you would see this. But no...you spew utter nonsense because someone in power tells you and blames minorities and poor people so you feel better about yourself.
Meanwhile, instead of understanding that people who don’t work do so because of lack of education or opportunity. You blame them. All it would take is a small amount of research on the matter. But that would require you not being a sheep.
Obama? Hahahahahahahahahahhaa. Your party just elected a man with dementia. Four more years bud. Strap in.
I actually agree with you. Biden is a horrible candidate and we might have to persevere with 4 years of the worst president in recent history. However, Dementia Biden is still better than A racist, who doesn’t understand science, supports dictators, doesn’t understand science, doesn’t read and is the laughing stock of world leaders. And I am sure there are some fine qualities too
Half the [censored] you just said is not true. But continue living in your liberal bubble watching CNN . If it were up to me you would all be lined up and put down. It will be happening soon enough anyways. Luckily we have the guns
So you just said lined up and put down and wonder why your type is compared to Nazis. Funny thing is you said half of what I said is wrong but failed to point out what.
Four more years liberal boy. Four more years. Go watch CNN and buzz off.
Yup you idiots are going to make the entire thing burn. CNN and MSNBC are your friends. If they ever decided to tell the truth with out restraint from the same corporate overlord.
You are winning and here we are.

Neil Walker has a higher career WAR than Carter. Neil. Walker. In fewer years.
The stats don't lie.
War is overrated What has Neil Walker done in his career?
Neil Walker and Joe Carter had similar OPS, which generally means they had a similar level of production at the plate. Carter definitely had more power, while Walker was able to reach base more consistently. Neither was anything special defensively, but Walker was a better baserunner for sure.
Overall, Joe Carter compares to Ruben Sierra(derailed by injury), Dale Murphy (Who's almost certain Hall of Fame career was derailed by injury), and Carlos Lee (Who was a far better hitter than Carter)

I think Lee is a fair comp to Carter minus the clutch factor.
People forget Carter was a 30-30guy and stile 20 bases many times in the early part of his career. Walkers WAR being higher has everything to do with WAR comparing players of the same position.

They did not have a thing called War when Joe Carter played. Stop comparing Joe Carter to players in a different time. Understand how baseball works with the changing of time. Let my help you all out. NO WAR, NO WAR. The game was not based on Sabermetrics from 1875- until the A's started using it and now every team uses it. Rules change, Strategy changes. Guys now do not care about hitting for AVG, half the teams in the league do not have true lead off hitters. You can hit 230 with 25 HR over 200 K's ok defense and still make a roster in today's game. We have more teams now than the 80's, new teams came in the mid 90's. 4 man rotation were a thing. Pitchers pitched more than 5 innings. New Ball parks, Smaller ball Parks. WAR is all formula based, nothing factual. Not all the best players have a war. I would take Joe Carter over Zimmerman any day of the week. I would take Joe Carter over Neil Walker any day of the week. Yeah War might be ok for the very best players but when you start comparing Joe Carter to Zimmerman and Neil Walker WAR does not work.

Carlos Lee was a much better hitter. having a career slash of .285/.339/.483/.821, compared to Carter's .259/.306/.464/.771. Carter had the benefit of playing for a team at it's absolute Apex, While Carlos Lee was moved from the White Sox right before they won the least memorable World Series of All Time, and played on some awful Astros teams

No. Way. I'm a huge Sox fan, and old enough to remember Joe Carter in the early '90's, and no way. First of all you can't just throw stats around out of context. There were also about 15 .400 hitters before WW2 and none after, so did we forget how to hit?
- Carlos Lee played on the Sox when they had a great lineup. Also on his team was Magglio Ordonez, Paul Konerko, and this little known guy named Frank Thomas. He hit in the middle of all that. AND Chicago is a great place to hit...
- Joe Carter was the best RF in the AL in the 92-93 timeframe, and was the cleanup hitter on back-to-back championship teams for whom he came up huge in both WS.
- Joe Carter played the first half of his career in the post-WW2 dead ball era. So based on stats alone, everyone in the 80's and early 90's sucked. Lee however played in the steroid era, when EVERYONE hit.

@ImDFC said in Joe Carter most underrated player:
For reference, WAR was created to compare the body of work from players from different generations. So you could compare Babe Ruth (Who never saw a slider or cutter) to Barry Bonds(Whose healthy lifestyle allowed him to peak in his late 30s)
It is flawed. You can not compare to players from different generations based on a formula. War can not tell me with facts how well Babe Ruth would have played in this generation or how well Bonds would have played back then. No Formula can ever say that with facts. WAR is overrated when comparing how a player played in there time. There is no way to compare players from different generations with a 100 percent fact.

"The post WW2 Dead Ball era". Is this a Joke? Seriously, I've never heard anyone refer to the 80s and 90s as a "Dead ball era", let alone "Post WW2". Secondly, there are statistics made that specifically compare players to the peers of their offensive environment. a .250/.300/.350 triple slash would yield a different wRC+ in 1900 as it would in 1920, and so on. Joe Carter reached 120 3 times, Carlos Lee reached it 5 times.
Oh, and thanks for proving my point that those White Sox teams are the most forgettable teams of all time. Outside of Frank Thomas and Mark Burhlele, I don't think a single name will be remembered outside of South Chicago. Paul Konerko, as much as I like him(and I do), will probably go down as the worst 400HR hitter of all time. And that's not necessarily a compliment -

The stats don't lie.
WAR is a terrible stat, it's an estimation with a bunch of assumptions and makes for horrible baseball conversation. It's not meant to be used the way most use it either.
The rest of Joe Carters stats, his actual real production -- very vanilla. Solid player but not great.
One of the all time most clutch moments though.
But overall it's laughable he's a 93 overall.
If WAR is terrible. Why do all the best players have the best WAR?......
“WAR is a terrible stat”
Then why do the best players ever have the highest WAR? Why do guys like Trout, Mookie and yelich always have the highest WAR year in and year out. Hmmmm. Must be terrible.
It's terrible because there is no standard, every source calculates their WAR differently. WAR attempts to provide a single holistic number to value players based upon more or less the premise that runs created = wins and values players as wins above replacement level. There are an array of assumptions abd positional adjustments assumed by whoever is calculating, these calculations utilize estimates and source-determined adjustments as they see fit.
It is not a factual statistic. It is a mathematical estimation the calculator has leeway to determine as they see fit.
Best part is you cant even total up a team's WAR and compare it to their actual wins, no back-testing!
But back on track it's terrible for baseball conversation because people quote WAR as if that's the single number representing a player and shuts down discussion, rather than adding to it... and baseball is far far more complex than a single figure can capture, especially when that single figure has positional assumptions for adjustments and relies on flawed defensive metrics.
Also you claim the best players have the best WAR... Really? Because according to the fangraphs calculation Lance Lynn was #11 last year and more valuable than both Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer... Hahaha right... And German Marquez and his 4.76 ERA in 176 IP was just as valuable as Luis Castillo and his 3.40 ERA in 190 IP... RIGHT... Oh and Mark Cahna was just as valuable as Freddie Freeman!
100 percent agree.

There are 2 forms of WAR people use. Thats it.
If people use it as an end all stat they just arent smart. Im not saying that. It is however a useful stat to understand a players worth. Im not sure how that can be denied.
Really? Trout belli and bregman werent the top 3 last year? Or is that a mirage? Are ruth bonds and mays not top 3 position players in WAR? Or is that a mirage? So yes i can claim the best players have the best war. Baseball reference is free. Lynn started 6 more games than max. Lynn had a better FIP than JV in a hitters park. So hahaha right.....Outta at least look into things before talking about it. Ill keep going though. Freeman plays the easiest position in the field. They both OPSed about the same. Mark almost had a 400 on base! Hes good! You didnt look much into this did you? You just saw names and ran with it. German and castillio had pretty close FIPs. 3.7. 4.0. Would you like to try again and find better examples? Those werent great.
based on this you would take Lynn over MAX Cy winner more than 1, and take Mark over Freddie based on WAR. All I can do is laugh.
