I hate arguing with people that don’t understand Sabermetrics. They still believe that RBIs matter and that Degrom shouldn’t of won the Cy Young because he lost more games than he won, and that BABIP is a made up word
Sabermatrics is not the only thing you can go off, and RBI's do matter, Hitting a fly ball with a runner on 3rd to score a run with less than two out does not matter especially if it wins you the game. Hitting a 2 run HR to help you team win does not matter. If RBI's do not matter than the score does not matter, the amount of games you help a team win does not matter. Without a player helping a team win by producing RS how would you Calculate your WAR. Yes Degrom deserve the Cy Young. The problem with Sabermetrics is some people only use that to determine how good a player is or was that is a problem in my opinion.

Neil Walker has a higher career WAR than Carter. Neil. Walker. In fewer years.
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!
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.
Never said I would take anyone over anyone. Lynn started 6 more games than MAX. Thats why his WAR is higher. He also had a fantastic year. Can you read my guy? Mark also had a identical year to freddie last year.
I read just fine, I am reading what is called between the lines, you just trying to make it as if they are just as good because WAR says so, when actually they are not. If you ask all 30 managers who they rather have, No one is taking Lynn over Max or Mark over Freddie, Thanks for making the point that WAR is overrated.

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.
Here we are? As if the country was better under barrys leadership? Once again your party just conceded to trump by going all in on a man who cant talk. Find a new party
It was better under Obama. It was certainly going in the right direction. If nothing else Obama dealt with two viral outbreaks that didn’t turn into a pandemic. We weren’t worried about going to war with a nuclear power. He made smart moves in the direction of healthcare and the environment. We didn’t have clan members doing as many hate crimes. The economy recovered from deregulation that led to a recession. A recovery that lasted into the next administration.
I am a liberal. Which is different from a Democrat. Current democrats are almost indistinguishable from Republicans of the 80s. If you can tell me the difference between Romney and Biden I would be impressed.
Problem is reasonable Republicans were run out of the party and are now corporate dems. So dems are actually Republican light. Trump is just a cult of people who have no idea of history, facts or policy
There is definitely at least one brain dead person on the site.
Are you actually comparing COVID 19 to whatever viral outbreaks under obama? They are just a tad different. Seeing how this one is you know global?
Oh yes clan members are just running rampant in the states. I encounter them all the time man. They are EVERYWHERE. You really do watch CNN dont you? I cant believe you actually typed that and believed that. There are not just clansman running around causing problems lmao. There are like none of them in existence in the first place.

You dont know how to use this site. You arent responding to anyone. Anyways nobody is basing anything off war. Carter wasnt thay great outside of war. Zimmerman has a better OPS.
Again what has Zimmerman done, How many AS games how many top 10 or 20 MVP voting. You really think Ryan Zimmerman was a better player cause WAR tells you that. This is laughable
Is everyone on this site just brain dead? Can you read dude? For now the second time Zimmerman has a better career OPS.......thats not WAR. Thats a traditional stat. It is laughable that you cant read or use google

RBIs do matter. They're just not great at telling a player's individual value. Juan Gonzalez won two MVPs because of his RBI counts. But those RBI counts are inflated because he had players like Will Clark, Ivan Rodriguez, Mark McLemore, and Rusty Greer hitting in front of him, providing ample opportunity to drive in runs. Would he have won those MVPs if he played for Philadelphia and had players like Kevin Stocker and Greg Jeffries batting ahead of him?

Lol..mark mclemore and Rusty Greer . Will Clark in Tex was a shell. Ivan was a beast because of the roids. Just stop getting lots of Rbi is a sign of productivity end of story. Especially if your a middle lineup guy whose main job is to ....drive in runs.

Because according to the fangraphs calculation Lance Lynn was #11 last year and more valuable than both Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer... Hahaha right...

I actually think you might be retarded dude. I really dont think you can read. Or you at least cant comprehend it. Once again i never said id take lynn over max hahaha. But lynn had one hell of a 2019 AND HE STARTED MORE GAMES THATS WHY HIS WAR IS HIGHER. Holy [censored] lol. Mark and freddie had identical OPS last year for now the second time since you cant read.
War is not overrated. It serves its purpose. Your brain just does not have the capacity to grasp it.
Had to resort to name calling, i read just fine. Yes War is differently overrated once again you are stating one fact to satisfy your belief. OPS really , Just because WAR says Mark had just as good of a year as Freddie does not make him better. I do not know what your point is but keep proving me that WAR is overrated you have no actual facts cause war is not a fact when it comes to stats or even how good a player really is. Why don't you get that in your thick Skull and use your brain for once.

Go look at Zimmerman and Neil Walkers Accomplishments and then Go look at Joe Carters careers. Look at the MVP voting, the AS appearances the awards over a career mean nothing you you people who only believe that a players career is solely based of War which is based on a formula and not how a player actually played.
You dont know how to use this site. You arent responding to anyone. Anyways nobody is basing anything off war. Carter wasnt thay great outside of war. Zimmerman has a better OPS.
Again what has Zimmerman done, How many AS games how many top 10 or 20 MVP voting. You really think Ryan Zimmerman was a better player cause WAR tells you that. This is laughable
Is everyone on this site just brain dead? Can you read dude? For now the second time Zimmerman has a better career OPS.......thats not WAR. Thats a traditional stat. It is laughable that you cant read or use google
When you will get it that comparing Zimmerman to Carter proved my point that WAR is overrated.
I hope you are just trolling at this point. Ryan zimmerman is the better player by traditional stats as well, as I have pointed out many times now

Neil Walker has a higher career WAR than Carter. Neil. Walker. In fewer years.
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!
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.
Never said I would take anyone over anyone. Lynn started 6 more games than MAX. Thats why his WAR is higher. He also had a fantastic year. Can you read my guy? Mark also had a identical year to freddie last year.
I read just fine, I am reading what is called between the lines, you just trying to make it as if they are just as good because WAR says so, when actually they are not. If you ask all 30 managers who they rather have, No one is taking Lynn over Max or Mark over Freddie, Thanks for making the point that WAR is overrated.
I actually think you might be retarded dude. I really dont think you can read. Or you at least cant comprehend it. Once again i never said id take lynn over max hahaha. But lynn had one hell of a 2019 AND HE STARTED MORE GAMES THATS WHY HIS WAR IS HIGHER. Holy [censored] lol. Mark and freddie had identical OPS last year for now the second time since you cant read.
War is not overrated. It serves its purpose. Your brain just does not have the capacity to grasp it.
Had to resort to name calling, i read just fine. Yes War is differently overrated once again you are stating one fact to satisfy your belief. OPS really , Just because WAR says Mark had just as good of a year as Freddie does not make him better. I do not know what your point is but keep proving me that WAR is overrated you have no actual facts cause war is not a fact when it comes to stats or even how good a player really is. Why don't you get that in your thick Skull and use your brain for once.
I really dont think you do man. You just gloss over all facts then ask the same questions. Its weird.
And yes OPS. The number all Major leaguers use to value themselves and others as a hitter.
I never said mark is better than freddie. Not once. All i said is he had just as good of a year last year by traditional and analytic stats.
My point is nothing. Just that WAR is another stat and its not a bad one. The best players have the best war. Pretty simple. Nobody is using it as some end all stat. Its just useful.
Im thick skulled yet you are sitting here FREEMAN IS NOT WORSE THAN CAHANA! When nobody is saying that lmao. You got your panties in a bunch for no reason.

I hate arguing with people that don’t understand Sabermetrics. They still believe that RBIs matter and that Degrom shouldn’t of won the Cy Young because he lost more games than he won, and that BABIP is a made up word
Sabermatrics is not the only thing you can go off, and RBI's do matter, Hitting a fly ball with a runner on 3rd to score a run with less than two out does not matter especially if it wins you the game. Hitting a 2 run HR to help you team win does not matter. If RBI's do not matter than the score does not matter, the amount of games you help a team win does not matter. Without a player helping a team win by producing RS how would you Calculate your WAR. Yes Degrom deserve the Cy Young. The problem with Sabermetrics is some people only use that to determine how good a player is or was that is a problem in my opinion.
RBIs do matter. They're just not great at telling a player's individual value. Juan Gonzalez won two MVPs because of his RBI counts. But those RBI counts are inflated because he had players like Will Clark, Ivan Rodriguez, Mark McLemore, and Rusty Greer hitting in front of him, providing ample opportunity to drive in runs. Would he have won those MVPs if he played for Philadelphia and had players like Kevin Stocker and Greg Jeffries batting ahead of him?
You can not take away what he did because he was on a good team. We will never know that what if's. You can not tell how good a player is off of any 1 or 2 or 3 stats. They all matter. I just have a problem with a made up formula that is not 100 percent correct when comparing players. People base that one formula to say so and so was not good or so and so player was better. There is no real proof unless those two players played at the same time in the same generation.

Lol..mark mclemore and Rusty Greer . Will Clark in Tex was a shell. Ivan was a beast because of the roids. Just stop getting lots of Rbi is a sign of productivity end of story. Especially if your a middle lineup guy whose main job is to ....drive in runs.
Pudge, Clark, Greer, and McLemore were all very good at getting on base. Using 1998 as an example, Pudge had the lowest OBP at 358. Are they all barn burning superstars? No. But they were excellent complimentary pieces to a good team, and had skillsets that boost RBI numbers for middle of the order players like Juan Gonzalez. Yes RBI matter, but they don't matter as much as people used to think

Dude. You are slow. Are you really going to use all star appearances as a measure to who is better? Is starlin castro better than kris bryant?
Since WAR is to much for your brain lets use traditional stats.
BA - Ryan
OBP- ryan
Slugging - ryanThe dude has a better Batting average, on base and slugging. What even is the argument anymore? Ryan zimmerman is the better player and its not just WAR that tells us that. You didnt do very well in school did you?

Thank you. These kids aren’t getting it
But we've seen many an undeserving MVP. Are you going to tell me that Mo Vaughn deserved the 1995 AL MVP, when Albert Belle (mean guy) and Edgar Martinez (Seattle) both had observably superior seasons? What about 1952 NL MVP Hank Sauer, who clearly had an inferior season to Robin Roberts? Writers can vote for who they want on MVP, it isn't exactly locked to merit. Hell, Kevin Pillar had as many MVP votes as Max Scherzer last year
I agree, writers, voters do not always get it right but you can not say those players did not have an exceptional year as well. This is why I do not like comparing players from different generations, I saw Joe Carter play his whole career and I saw Zimmerman play his whole career. To compare the players off of a made up formula is not right. Carter career had more success than Zimmerman. Carter was a better hitter than Zimmerman, They played different POS so can not compare the fielding aspect of the game.
