Let's compare Todd Frazier and Kris Bryant. According to UZR, Bryant has been much better, with a total of 3.2 runs saved to Frazier's -4.7. The more basic Total Zone system also gives Bryant the advantage, with +5 to Frazier's -2. By Defensive Runs Saved, both players have an exactly average total of 0. The Hardball Times' RZR says Bryant has been much better at plays in his "zone" - but Frazier has made 3 times as many plays outside of his "zone". The advantages basically cancel each other out. The Inside Edge system sees Frazier as being significantly better, and it's not close: code:So, now that we have all the metrics, we can clearly see who's better, right?

chilihead posted:Uh, Justin Upton does this every year. He always has one month where he plays like a hall of famer and you think he's turned the corner. Let me put it this way: A couple more games like this and he'll be back up to 0 WAR for the season. And this stretch spans as many plate appearances as Madison Bumgarner gets for an entire season, so the stats are just as meaningful.

The average player this year draws a walk 8.3% of the time. Brandon Guyer this year has been hit by pitches 9.3% of the time.

Atomizer posted:Unrelated, this outfield play to force out Trout is a good illustration of why the Infield Fly Rule exists: The infield fly rule is to prevent infielders from getting a double play by doing this. Dropping the ball to exchange for a slower baserunner is perfectly legal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJDH43XBmxM

Inspector_666 posted:In more live WBC news that should come as little surprise, the Pakistani team is TOOTBLAN-y as hell. The Brazil outfield was playing pitcher depth or possibly shallower. One guy lined one in the gap that went to the wall. He tried for a triple and got thrown out by at least 30 feet.

If the Tigers make the playoffs and Fulmer doesn't get ROY, I will lose all faith in the voting system forever. He's singlehandedly saved this team.

There's a significant chance of rain in Detroit all night tonight, and all day tomorrow. In other words, a very silly end to the season is a possibility.

Miguel Cabrera is pretty good, as is the rule that you can claim a cheap win immediately after 5 innings.

I'll be interested to see how the rotation gets set up from here. Do you go with the guys who give you the best chance to win each game? That would probably mean skipping Matt Boyd against the Braves, but it would also set him up to pitch the wild card game if they get there. Or you could just push everyone back one day, meaning Verlander would pitch on Monday against Cleveland and Fulmer would go Tuesday. But then, wouldn't the Indians be fielding a total scrub lineup? Do you waste Verlander on that game? Game theory is cool.
