-Entering the 3rd day since his unfortunate accident, it’s still hard to get away from the Joba Chamberlain story. New details emerged yesterday on when Joba may be able to resume athletic activities, which gives us a rough sketch of when/if he’ll be able to return this season. The NY Times said the fact [...]
Typically, I dismiss most articles in my RSS feed produced by the mainstream media. Generally with a raised brow and a quick decisive click of the mouse ,they’re gone and I’m onto the next topic du jour. I have to give Jason Whitlock of FOX Sports credit though for grabbing my attention after producing one [...]
There were two baseball stories that I read today that I found incredibly interesting, and I wanted to highlight them here.
The numbers behind a catch and a just-miss
Mark Simon had a great post this morning comparing the hang time on a game-changing bloop double the Yankees allowed to the Twins a few [...]
Before each season, SG of RLYW uses the Diamond Mind program to simulate the upcoming season, using the statistics provided by various projection systems. The 2011 simulations were released this morning, and I encourage you to visit the site to check them out. If you go to RLYW, you will find individual standings for [...]
A few weeks ago, I noted that the various freely available defensive metrics were all over the map when it came to measuring the glove-work of Robinson Cano. The variation in all of those metrics is illustrative of the still nascent nature of defensive metrics, and suggests that relying entirely on one [...]
One statistic that gets thrown around a lot as a measure of luck is Batting Average on Balls In Play, or BABIP. BABIP measures how often balls that are batted into the field of play go for hits. Because about 30% of balls in play tend to go for hits, a player [...]
In recent comments, Joe Girardi suggested that he is considering tinkering with the Yankees lineup:
“We’ll continue to talk about our lineup and how guys fit in,” Girardi said. “Right now we don’t expect a ton of changes. We’ve talked about some things internally that we might try to do. I don’t [...]
One area of sabermetric analysis that is still very much in its “rough draft” stage is the effort to measure defense. Even popular statistics such as UZR have plenty of detractors, and it seems that little agreement will be reached on this issue until Field f/x provides more accurate data to build statistics [...]
The Yankees’ signing of Rafael Soriano has met with some criticism, and rightfully so. The size of the deal and loss of a draft pick seem to outweigh his value as a set-up man, and his injury history adds a large dollop of risk to the equation. However, I have seen some doubts as to [...]
Ever since Derek Jeter was handed another Gold Glove award yesterday, the old debate about fielding metrics and their value has once again come to the forefront of baseball discussion on the internet. The statheads have decried Jeter being awarded the honor, pointing to practically every available metric to show that Jeter is an awful [...]
