What do you guys think are the 7 most interesting baseball stats?
Just wondering. What are the coolest stats to you guys? This is supposed to be informative, so please be serious and list 7.
Re: What do you guys think are the 7 most interesting baseball stats?
In no order.
1. WAR
2. wOBA
3. UZR
4. BABIP
5. FIP
6. wPitchTypes
7. Outs
Re: What do you guys think are the 7 most interesting baseball stats?
I don't have 7, but there's 3 in particular I like: WPA, UZR, and Dollars (FanGraphs has this and I find it to be pretty interesting)
Re: What do you guys think are the 7 most interesting baseball stats?
The dollar value is simply an extension from WAR, btw.

It helps me personally to conceptualize wins above replacement (it's a relatively abstract thing)

The dollar value is technically more abstract than WAR. WAR is relatively simple - just think of it as a WAR of 2 is about average.

I think VORP is interesting

E.R.A.
Wins
I.P.
OBP
Ops
B.A.
Stolen bases.
A bit simplistic, but, then, I'm rather naive about baseball stats.
