One size doesn’t fit all: MLE
Chris Constancio takes a look at experience with MLE
If you want to think about these differences as multipliers that are commonly used in estimating major league equivalencies, the experienced hitters’ strikeout rate increases by 1.22 times and the inexperienced hitters’ strikeout rate increases by about 1.15. ...The implication is that minor league hitters adjusting to a new league should be penalized less than a minor league veterans’ performance when calculating minor league equivalencies.
As a blast from the past:
-Here is my position on MLE.
-Here is a long discussion on MLE.
-Here are MGL’s MLEs for 2001-2003 minor league ballplayers, as of 2004. There’s a good study for someone to do right there, as to the relevancy of MLE. You see some names (including Jack Cust!) at the top there, and others that a scout would be surprised to see there.
