God, there are park factors on Statcorner

I spent like twenty minutes searching for those on ESPN and I’m not so sure the ones they use make a lot of sense

P.S.

Mark Lowe’s 84 tRA+ is mainly the result of all those guys he walks, right?

wOBA doesn't correct for luck.

We’re thinking about how to maybe go about that.

Yes.

I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.

Yes, and for the most part that's what wOBA* is (wOBA star in case SBN eats my asterisk)

It’s wOBA adjusted for the home park. But, much like tRA isn’t regressed, wOBA isn’t either so luck still plays a role. We have the formula for tRA(reg), we need to create one for wOBA.

Interestingly, Beltre has been a lot unluckier on fly balls than line drives

BABIP LD = .622
BABIP FB = .102

Crap, didn't factor HRs out of BABIP LD - should be .609

This is more depressing than Schindler's list

I was at Shea for the Felix-Slam!
Personal M's record: 5-4.

I hate that movie.
