I had never heard this idea, but after researching it, I don't see any link to support your claim. Could you provide a link? The "replacement" is league average replacement player, not "team specific" replacement player.

For example, using your example, Ruth had a .551 wOBA and 216 wRC+ in 1926 with a 12 WAR. In 1927, Gehrig had a .540 wOBA and a 209 wRC+ Also, in '27, Ruth's wOBA and wRC+ dipped to .545 and 212, yet his WAR increased to 13 WAR.

So could I get that link, because I am genuinely interested
I guess I'm not getting any link:noidea:

That's like being black in 1960 and someone saying: "Look dude, J. Edgar Hoover is as respected as anyone in the government. You have to listen to everything he says and if you don't want to agree with him then you can leave now"

Call me Martin Luther King Jr.........
You flatter yourself greatly

Well, if your going to be an ass. I don't just sit around the computer all day - so if you can't be patient, then go out and find your own link.

But I'm pretty sure you've been on SH all day as you have posts around 3 PM, 4 PM, and now 5 PM. Now you could be doing other shit and just briefly checking here but I still don't see why you couldn't post on this thread.

And you are the one who stated something erroneous- you are the one who should provide documentation. Furthermore, how the hell am I supposed to find support for something that isn't right? I looked for a good 10 minutes, and I all I found was links about WAR being relative to ALL position players of that player's particular year. Now maybe I'm not looking right, so go ahead and give me the link and I will admit I'm wrong (which is it what I do when I am wrong). So.....

dafuq is up with this thread today?

All my baseball threads are annoying lately. This sucks. I'm gonna go hit fly balls for a few hours instead.

I've been off this thread for over 2 hours, and off SportsHoopla completely for 1. Not that it matters, how I spend my time is my business. Cry yourself a river. I've given you plenty of quotes and links - start there. Do your own research. If my assertion that having quality players around you affects your WAR can't be quantified, so be it, but I am not spending any more time discussing this with someone who thinks that answering his beck and call should be my first priority.

Judgin' his own miracles, but He won't cause He automatic"

Again never said that. In fact, I explicitly said you could have been doing more important shit.
