@dewrock said in WAR MOST OVERRATED FORMULA IN BASEBALL:
Replacement level is the same across the league. It doesn't change because a team is good or bad. Cal Ripken Jr won the MVP in 1991 with the 11th best bWAR season of all time. The Orioles that year lost 95 games. You think his stats wouldn't have been as good if he had played for the Pirates or Braves that year instead?
You going to USE MVP that is a voting method and can be bias, glad you said stats and not WAR.
His stats and WAR would have been the same regardless if he played for a last place team or a first place team.
You do not know that for 100 percent, he would have faced different pitching in different ball parks with different teammates. I like to know how you know that 100 percent?
Oh lordy.. you have talked yourself in circles and still can't grasp the whole idea behind WAR.
For the third time. It's to compare a player based on the replacement level player of the same time. It doesn't matter what team he plays on. It's irrelevant. It's taking into account wRC+ which is park adjusted. It's taking into account weighted statistics.
It also isn't comparing players to say how they would do in a different era. It's comparing players based on how valuable they were in their's... which is all that matters...
You can't seem to grasp that...Thanks, All speculation
You are dense dude

By what you believe Joe Morgan is better than Ken Griffey Jr.
Remember that time you complained that WAR didn't compare players against their era?
Joe Morgan put up great all-around numbers with tremendous D at a middle infield position for a 15 year peak during a low period for offenses.
Griffey put up good but not great numbers (considering he was contemporaries w/ McGwire, Sosa, Bonds, etc) with also excellent D but at a less important position for roughly a 10 year peak (with partial injury-plagued seasons stretching for another 5) during arguably the biggest offensive explosion in MLB history.
Morgan should be rated higher than Griffey but not unreasonably so. Which means WAR (100.5 vs 83.8) is a pretty accurate stat despite your protestations.
Is Trout better than Winfield?
Is that serious question? Of course he is.

Wtf are you talking about?? I just proved it.. what are you reading?
You have absolutely zero clue. I'm assuming you can't read now -
I'll post it again...
Yes. Much better.
It took Winfield 22 years to accumulate 59.9 fWAR.It took Trout just over 8 years to accumulate 73.4 fWAR. And he's only 28.

Yeah by Career at this point Smith WAR is better, We can speculate Trout WAR will be better at the end of his career but we can also speculate he could get injured in his career as Griffey did.

Now you you pick and choose how WAR works for you. So now it is who has a high WAR in less years. 19 years is a whole career we will see if Trout plays that long and stays healthy. I am just making my point that the player with a higher war is not always the better player.

No I do understand, that Trout got to plus 70 WAR in 8 years when it took smith 19 years. I know Trout is better than more than half the guys above him in WAR, That is my whole point that just because WAR says a guy is better that is not true. You are to hard head to see my points. I have understood most of what you have said. Did you read the article I bet you didn't.
