Laughable at best.

1-4 is better than 1-5 and scoring a run is better than a BB

thanks for your input. Since JE bats leadoff he usually gets 1 more AB per game than JBj so there have been and will be plenty of times those stats are reversed.

but seeing as your philosophy would be much more detrimental to JE maybe i should switch my entire scoring system. hmmmm.

A RS has little to do with the player (especially if he doesn't have a SB in that inning). it has to do with the batters behind you. a BB has more to do with the player and less to do with the batter behind you (especially when the majority of your AB's are in the 9 hole - they aint pitching around you).

A .333 OBP is usually considered to be better than a .250 OBP.

And a run scored is better than standing on 1st base.

Just as good as scoring a game against Ells when all he did was come in as a defensive replacement.

oh babe. how long have you been following my trackers? DNP or defensive replacement = LOSS. gotta play in the game to score points. sitting on the bench = losing.

this hasnt changed in 3 years.

hold tight something headed to Florida for you:

[Jasonbay44]

You could hit a grounder to the pitcher and reach first on an error, and score on your teammate hitting a home run, while other guy could hit a lead off triple, and next three guys could strikeout and strand you at 3rd. Runs scored will obviously happen if you are on base more, but scoring a run when JBJ didn't, while JBJ reached base more, doesn't mean Ellsbury had a better game. You need teammates help to score runs, unless you hit a home run, which Ellsbury didn't. Edited May 18, 2016 by Jasonbay44

No question, but I think that part sort of depends on the guys hitting behind you.

And we're also talking about a completely arbitrary scoring system that wasn't meant to be featured on baseball ref. I'll say that it's much more reliable than that rag Fangraphs though.

What is it with you and fangraphs now? It's both unsettling and hilarious.

I'm surprised he hasn't added it to his sig yet.

Once DUMBrowski comes to his senses and follows my Three Point Plan, I'll change the sig to reflect the ongoing Fangraphs issues.

I think only one of those is happening.

It's trading Pedroia, isn't it?

[mvp 78]

I'd be ok with that.

You know Pedroia is staying with this team until your kid is old enough to drive. BUTTholz, on the other hand.....

If Pedroia becomes the new Johnny Pesky, I'll travel all across the country and pick a new team based on my one experience at their ballpark and hope that it feels like Ye Olde Fenway.

I suggest you start packing.

We'll see.

MVP is going to trade Pedroia to Fangraphs.

Don't be ridiculous. Fangraphs would have nothing useful to give the Sox in return!

Then this would be another example of the FO doing it's thing!!!!!!
