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
I hate arguing with people who think sabermetrics are the only thing that matters and the RBIs are a useless metric. Especially, when just about all the people who rely heavily on saber metrics can't even explain the math or underlying assumptions in it. WAR is a good stat, but it is flawed. Just like RBI are a good stat but flawed. Interesting thing about Carter and the horrible RBI stat. Whether dude was on a good team or bad team he always seemed to get 100 RBIs. I guess its meaningly, but it seems that most of the great players are able to get lots of RBIs. Most great power hitters seem to be able to hit 400+ homers. Just saying.
Please show me the average player that hit 100RBI 10x, 30 Hr 5x, stole 20 SB 6x and 5x All-Star (Not saying one of those stats is the end all be all...but the culmination says quite a bit). If you can find the player who did all those things and IS NOT VERY GOOD I would like to see it. Not saying Joe is HOF or borderline. I think he is the category below that.
He’s above average, not great, and all advanced stats that show individual performance lead to that conclusion. BABIP, WAR, OPS+, wrc+. All these used define statistics to calculate values that are not estimates, that can be used to compare players. And while carter was good, he was not the caliber of player you and others say he is. He’s the guy that today people would sign for a 10 mil 2 year deal, he wouldn’t be a core part of a team. Using my team to compare, he’d be a Yovani Gallardo. Great for to years, decent for some, and average a whole lot
30 homers and 100 RBIs 10x isn’t average a lot. But I have said he is above average. Depends on how you define great. If you say great = HOF ok. I agree. If great is better than Alex Gordon. He is in a category higher than Alex Gordon or Neil Walker or whatever player with similar WAR. My bigger point is that WAR doesn’t capture his career very well

So would you say Charlie Blackmon is not a core part of the Rockies? Would you be able to get him for 10 million over 2 years or 108 million over six?
Because Blackmon has yet to have a single year WAR higher than Carter's high...

Also, do the people who rip on the A's and Moneyball realize that the Red Sox broke the curse by appyling Moneyball principals to a club with deep pockets? Do you think David Ortiz would have ever been on the Sox if triple slashes was all they cared about in 2003?
DEEP POCKETS is the operative word. The Yanks dynasty was won with DEEP pockets. NOT moneyball. Also David Ortiz was one of those guys who was looked at as a prospect who might explode with in Minny. The Yanks looked closely at him at the time because they thought he would be a monster in Yankee stadium.
Schilling, Ortiz, Manny, Damon, Pedro, Papelbon, Varitek.....it did not take a rocket scientist to figure out that a team with that core might win some games. Those 2 great starters, 2 big bats, a leadoff guy a closer and switch hitting power hitting catcher. Money ball or common sense? Oh wait we didn't repeat on that team...lets add 2B prospect Pedroia and Marlins ace Josh Beckett. Nothing there screams of mystical mathematical knowledge you gained. Just money to sign those guys and have money left for some extra pieces.
The Yanks dynasty won by surrounding their homemade talent with supplementary players that they could afford. They tried just throwing money at everybody for a decade and a half before that without making the playoffs once in the 80's.
More recently, the Dogers have proved again and again that cash alone does not build a championship team.

Dodger have been perennial contenders and probably would have a title if it wasn't for Houston kicking cans. Yes, Yanks had some good decision but nothing happens without the money. Actually with Yanks its more like they stopped making bad decisions because Steinbrenner was suspended

Carter was a good player that came through in the clutch. To say he would be a 2 yr 10 mil guy is crazy. I looked up on baseball reference for similarity and the top three players for similarity scores come up as
- Dale Murphy
- Ruben Sierra
- Carlos Lee
All good players that I dont think anyone could argue are average or slightly above average. I dont believe anyone here is arguing Carter is a HOFer or that he was "great". Being a good MLB player is completely admirable.

@SaveFarris said in Joe Carter most underrated player:
Neil Walker has a higher career WAR than Carter. Neil. Walker. In fewer years.
The stats don't lie.
I hope you’re not disrespecting the real deal Neil Walker right now

I would say that’s about right. I think better than Sierra but not as good as Murphy.

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.
And only 1 of those guys has a world series
So in your view, Enos Slaughter (4 rings) is better than Ted Williams (0). Got it!
While the ring argument somewhat works for basketball, when people bring up rings in baseball it makes absolutely no sense. There are 9 players on the field. 1 player cant take over the game in Baseball. Their are players that have dominant postseasons, Ortiz for example. But lets be honest, Boston would not have won the 2013 WS if the Tigers didn’t have the worst bullpen in the League. There are too many variables at play to use rings as an argument for player greatness.
The ring thing doesn’t really work in basketball either. It was something Jordan came up with to make himself greater. Unless Robert shorty is better than Malone and Barkley put together. Because as great as Jordan was if Pippen were a Trailblazer we would be saying Drexler as GOAT
You have posted honestly the 3-4 dumbest comments i have ever seen in my life. People called Mike the GOAT before he even won a ring. He averaged 37 his third year in the league. You have no idea what you are talking about .
This is just NOT true. People said that he was an incredible athlete but COULDNT win until he beat the Lakers in the finals. You are playing revisionist history. When the Pistons were torching the Bulls nobody was calling him the greatest. He was considered on Wilkins level before he started winning. He was just a hi light machine, but NOT a winner like Bird, Isiah or Magic...until he started winning.
In terms of dumb comments...really? Have you read what you type. I think you have an easy 15 comments dumber than my worst. I think the problem is that like many things in society educated opinions explained and grounded in fact or no longer accepts. Dumb thoughts like "climate change is false", "coronavirus is a chinese hoax", "GrandpaShaft is an intelligent tranny" are popular to say without substance because people want to believe it.
For now the second time since reading is not your strong suit. Go re watch the 91 finals. The announcers were calling him the greatest player ever.
Yeah dumb comments. You literally said michael jordan “made up” the ring argument to further his case. You said kyrie and chris bosh were not good. When in reality lebron had exactly one ring without them. so yes. You arent very smart and people with as little knowledge as you should not talk basketball.

Wilt played against scrubs and 8 teams. So did Russell. Both amazing but misleading stats.
LeBron is a great player. But is 3 for 6 and always had tons of talent around him. To say he doesn't is just being totally biased to help your argument.Jordan was the best defensive and offensive player of his time. There's a reason every other basketball player says he's the GOAT. He was so incredibly tough, no bigger player wanted anything to do with him. Was Pippen a great player? Yes. But Jordan made him. Not the other way around. If Pippen were on say, the Hornets, you'd never talk about him.
He played the best players available. Just like everyone else.
Everyone says Jordan’s the a GOAT because the media and Nike influences them to do so. Go say Jordan sux and see what sneaker deal you get. Pippen made Jordan and Jordan made Pippen....who made Lebron?
Delete your entire life
Hmmm. more incredible insight. At least you have the cahones to say it unlike the [censored] who loved your response.
You literally said nike and the media convinced people to think MJ is the GOAT lmao. You are a numbskull bud. Honestly the dumbest thing i have ever heard. The games are free on YT!!!! Go watch!
You said Pippen made MJ lmao. Your entire opinion should he scrubbed from the internet after that

I agree. Jordan fans and Lebron haters act like Pippen wasn’t also one of the 25 greatest basketball players of all time. They say Lebron needs superstars to win even thought the only real superstars he played with have been Wade and AD. Bosh, Kevin Love, and Kyrie are some of the most overrated players ever. I do think Jordan has the slight edge over Lebron in the GOAT argument, but only until Lebron passes Kareem for all time scoring if he does
You people on here are really really dumb
That was a great analysis. Thanks for your opinion. We are all better for it. lol
Not sure Hall of famers are “overrated” No need for analysis when you say things as stupid as this

When in reality lebron had exactly one ring without them. so yes. You arent very smart and people with as little knowledge as you should not talk basketball.
Please point where I said Kyrie and Bosh weren’t good. Like most things you write you have no basis
Oh sorry you said overrated. Yes the two guys who saved lebrons [censored] are super overrated. Cant talk hoops with bronsexuals. They are all uneducated and didnt play at a junior varsity level
Cool... name the guy Lebron played with as good or better than Pippen. You should stop posting now. You just never make good points

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.
And only 1 of those guys has a world series
So in your view, Enos Slaughter (4 rings) is better than Ted Williams (0). Got it!
While the ring argument somewhat works for basketball, when people bring up rings in baseball it makes absolutely no sense. There are 9 players on the field. 1 player cant take over the game in Baseball. Their are players that have dominant postseasons, Ortiz for example. But lets be honest, Boston would not have won the 2013 WS if the Tigers didn’t have the worst bullpen in the League. There are too many variables at play to use rings as an argument for player greatness.
The ring thing doesn’t really work in basketball either. It was something Jordan came up with to make himself greater. Unless Robert shorty is better than Malone and Barkley put together. Because as great as Jordan was if Pippen were a Trailblazer we would be saying Drexler as GOAT
You have posted honestly the 3-4 dumbest comments i have ever seen in my life. People called Mike the GOAT before he even won a ring. He averaged 37 his third year in the league. You have no idea what you are talking about .
This is just NOT true. People said that he was an incredible athlete but COULDNT win until he beat the Lakers in the finals. You are playing revisionist history. When the Pistons were torching the Bulls nobody was calling him the greatest. He was considered on Wilkins level before he started winning. He was just a hi light machine, but NOT a winner like Bird, Isiah or Magic...until he started winning.
In terms of dumb comments...really? Have you read what you type. I think you have an easy 15 comments dumber than my worst. I think the problem is that like many things in society educated opinions explained and grounded in fact or no longer accepts. Dumb thoughts like "climate change is false", "coronavirus is a chinese hoax", "GrandpaShaft is an intelligent tranny" are popular to say without substance because people want to believe it.

Bro. Dwyane wade? What kyrie did in 16 finals could not of been done by pippen. I dont make good points lmao. But nike convinced all of us Mike is the best. That was a great point. Calling 3 HOFers overrated was also really good. My favorite people online are the ones who say completely outlandish wrong statements then get corrected and cant accept they are dumb. Get better. Go watch free youtube games of mike. You are confused. 3-6 bud. 3-6.

Clearly you've not seen any tweets, press conferences, or speeches by Trump if you think what he has said were the dumbest in your life.
Four more years
You deserve the Gov't you get. So glad I don't live in that shithole
