i was just thinking about this last week, and decided that Kupp was my ideal trade target. Luckily, it didn't work out.
generally, though, it depends greatly on the quality of your league's waiver wire.
just saw that rotoworld is doing a "greatest seasons" draft, from 1980-2019. using WIS.
fantasy-focused, so they are just using the roto stats from the simulated WIS season, not the actual W/L records.
that doesn't address my objection.
i've done the same in excel. that part is pretty easy. the annoying part is going to be having to look up every player you're thinking of drafting to see all his years within the timeframe.
here's an example: Darryl Kile is in the google sheet, but he would...
i don't like the dice-roll part (in this format) because it leads to this extra-constraint. We can't just filter on the years. We'd have to then also search each player to make sure he has 3 eligible seasons WITHIN the time constraint.
i really liked One Shot at Forever
easy to peg it as the Hoosiers of baseball. it chronicles the early 1970s high-school baseball team from the tiny Illinois town of Macon, who made it to the state tournament (back before they had divisions). Starring a hippie, baby boomer coach.
Non-HOF* Right Fielders with a higher JAWS score than Baines:
Larry Walker
Dwight Evans
Reggie Smith
Bobby Abreu
Bobby Bonds
Brian Giles
Jack Clark
Tony Oliva
Rocky Colavito
Rusty Staub
Dave Parker
JD Drew
Darryl Strawberry
Felipe Alou
Ken Singleton...
i was wrong about this part. when separating total WAR into the offensive and defensive subcomponents, there actually IS an adjustment for both parts.
and that is likely the chief explanation for why Cal Ripken's 1991 season rates so much higher than Jim Rice's 1978 season, even on oWAR.
well, 15 years can be very important, especially if we're talking about, say 2000 vs 2015. There was about a 20% difference in runs scored.
Ballpark DOES matter, too (that's what fangraphs means when they say it's park-neutral). So, say Coors Field vs. Petco makes a huge difference.
Defensive...
i didn't care so much for The Arm (though i cannot remember why)
my faves over the past couple of years are the one by Brian Kenny and The Only Rule Is It Has To Work
eta: i now see upthread that you (NV) were the one to recommend TORIIHTW. Thanks.
