Is there a star for leaving the game with the lead with a potential win??

QS kinda gets you there...

PLAYER B - 8,656 PAs, .320/.398/.560/154 OPS+, 1271 R, 425 HR, 1493 RBI, 38 SB, 66.6 WAR

Both had their entire careers in the past 25 years, and played similar defensive positions.

I'd take player A mostly for the stolen bases.

QS kinda gets you there...

kind of, but i actually wanted to compare it to QS... Cause again, i think there is something to a pitcher who wins besides just their offense...

I kind of think it is similar to sac flies for hitters... How they often change their approach and or swing to get the runner in...

I think playing with the lead some pitchers may change their approach, might get a little lazy or whatever... other players seem to step up their game...

Now i have no proof to this... just an observation i have... and why i still like the W/L%...

by the stats given, i would take player B...

but i would like to know WAR7 instead of WAR
and seasons played

PLAYER A - 48.2 WAR7, 15 total seasons (1 partial)
PLAYER B - 44.6 WAR7, 14 total seasons (2 partial)

 

[MilkSpiller22]

PLAYER A - 48.2 WAR7, 15 total seasons (1 partial)
PLAYER B - 44.6 WAR7, 14 total seasons (2 partial)

neither helps... i stay with my choice of B...

Player A, though that could change.

A is associated with roids B isnt well not yet anyways

 

[MilkSpiller22]

SB %?

72%

 

[MilkSpiller22]

I looked at who the 2 players were and made an extended evaluation... and now I am even more on the B side...

 

[calsnowskier]

72%

I am guessing that is for player A only?

who cares about B he only had 38 SB

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

It's a popular belief among casual fans...and Texans.

Only two types of people put ketchup on their hotdogs. Mental patients and Texans.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

To a certain extent but I still like to know. I also take home ball parks into the equation and some other aspects. The new metrics are good but they don't cover everything.

I'd like to know total years played, and/or number of starts. Starts/season and IP/GS are important bits for me.

Looks like mixed results of this one...

Player A is Jeff Bagwell
Player B is Miguel Cabrera

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

I'd take player A mostly for the stolen bases.

Obviously, 202 is a shitload more than 38, but still, I'd like to know CS before I award this on SB. For example, if player A was caught stealing 80-90 times, a case could be made that his team would have been better off had he just stayed put.

BTW, how'd you like Chief Wahoo's schvanz?

Miggy is on roids and is an angry, drunken Mexican.
