NLD 60 - Best Birth Year Ever!

Hawk hit Odor

Looks like Dale put us in a tail spin. 1-8 over the last 3 series. I think we're toast.

Contreras hits TWO 1-12 HRs off of his card v Clase to beat us in game 2. ugh. One to send to extras and one to win in extras. He's not that great v RHP, but good enough I guess.

We had a nice run, but this stretch will make it tough unless we just crush our division. Only six more outside the divison.

When are ratings coming?? Usually, it is between games 111 and 117 and we will be at 120 tonight.

I always enjoy the ratings--even if I typically say little about them (I really want to see how bad my defense is)--I know my pitching is mediocre at best--but the fielding isn't helping the pitching out for sure.

I'll probably get to them today some time. Given that we've lost 11 of 12, I'm not too motivated....

Oh, and three guys injured last night too.

Ok, ratings. I did the ratings today and the luck factors after the games tonight.

As usual for 100 mil, the ratings are fairly close overall. Stoney and Milleram are definitely at the top. Then there isn't a lot of difference between Steve, Jeep, spider, Semper. Next group of Hawk through JTJ are basicallyu the same and Dale trails by a mile. Not sure Dale has done much with his team as there are a lot of weirdness there especially with Chafin only getting 16 IP. I think his team could be better with the correct usage.

The East and the West have the best averagr ratings. West best hitting, East best P+F

P+F

Again, pretty close. Only Dale is the anomaly being quite a bit high. Big A and JTJ are a little low.

Luck Factors

Hawk and Randal are little high, not that big of a deal however. Hawk has been very good at bpsis and pythag. Randal injuries and HRs balanced a little by poor one run record.

OTOH, Jeep and JTJ are really low and Dale is a little low. Turns out my team doesn't rate well AND is unlucky.

Jeep and JTJ are both bad with bphrs. JTJ is being killed by rolls on the other teams' cards. Jeep with one runners and pythag. Both have had bad luck with unearned runs.

Hi Joe. Being a relative newcomer, could you please post descriptions for each of the column headings? They are a bit cryptic to me. Thanks.

Hi Steve,

Not sure if you just mean the luck factors or not but the factors there are:

bpsi
bphr (both of the bp numbers compares your rates against those of your opponents)

1-R one run game record above or below .500

pyt - difference between the pythag and the actual record
rolls - how often you roll on your cards versus the other guy's

ue/e - percentat of unearned runs to errors. In other words how often do your error actually hurt you.

Inj - injuries versus expected

Luck factor - takes the plusses and minuses, usually by those which are outside of a STD deviation, but some of the ranges are tweaked a bit so it's not just the straight std dev.

One thing that might not be apparent is that fielding and pitching rating numbers are better when they're lower.

Hope this helps. What other questions do you have?

Thanks JTJ

I appreciate the ratings and the effort--I always wondered if you ignore 50 cent bench players and low use pitchers??

I don't analyze a bench per se, only the platoon and I do account for teams that face a lot of LHSP (everyone this time around)

For Injuries I factor in a "generic" backup, probably in the $1 range to play.

Low use pitchers are accounted for as I put in all the IP for the teams to get their pitching ratings. This is why I can't really do much until teams usage are established and the bulk of the add/drops are over.
