Max on WOWY… including baserunning
I’ve always had it on my to-do list, and, well, Max did it. But, I’m skeptical of the results as it pertains to Brock:
Baserunners: Willie Wilson, Vince Coleman and Lou Brock were the best once you factor in the battery against which they were stealing (Wanna know about Rickey? Fifth, behind Tim Raines; best among the active players? Carl Crawford, barely missing the top 10); finally the worst three on the basepath, Retrosheet era, are Duane Kuiper, Minnie Minoso and Greg Gross.
As I wrote in the comments:
Great stuff Max. I’d be interested to hear more about Brock v Raines. The gap between the two is 130 SB and 161 CS. It’s hard to believe that Brock can be in the same ballpark as Raines. What you are proposing is that Brock ran against much tougher pitcher/catchers.
