Sean Forman is taking your suggestions
You can post it here or there.
- I reiterated to him that I like Guy’s suggestion of ERA+ as 2 - ERA/lgERA. It keeps the bigger-is-better so that his readers aren’t shocked, while maintaining the symmetry of what an ERA+ of 50 and 150 should be. It sounds like Sean might go for it.
- I’ll second the request for a split by DP opps.
- I’ll add that I want to see a split by SF opps.
- Times facing opponent should have 1,2,3,4+, not just 1,2,3+.
- Where’s FIP?
- Also, add in bbFIP.
- Do away with OPS+ and make it RC+…
- ...with RC based on Linear Weights, not the basic version that is 30 years dated
