Crazy stats


Crazy stats

It took the Cards until game 35 to hit a homer .I've never seen a team go that long before their 1st , even in deadball leagues https://www.pennantchase.com/baseba..

Re: Crazy stats

On the flip side, they're stealing runs left and right. Over 300 SB in just 49 games.

Re: Re: Crazy stats

They rank at the bottom of the league in runs scored . Look at the caught stealing , almost 3 a game . To me , thats giving up one inning of outs a game . By the way , is stealing home in this game ? I don't think i've ever seen it .

Re: Crazy stats

The Bill James rule states that the break even for stealing percentage is 66%. You have to be higher than that for it to help your offense.

"Well, stealing bases adds some runs but very few, and you lose most of the runs that you gain by having runners caught stealing."
Bill James

Re: Crazy stats

To MrBubbles, there are no thefts of Home Plate in PC- but there also are no Throwing errors by Pitchers on Pickoffs, no wild throws on SB attempts by catchers, and No Balks, -That makes stealing bases a lot less attractive because the net gain can never be better than a steal

Re: Re: Crazy stats

You mean like I basically said the same thing 2 days ago ?

Re: Crazy stats

I guess I didn't see that post, perhaps it was in another thread I didn't read

Re: Re: Crazy stats

It was the 3rd post on this thread , thanks for the info on pickoffs . I wonder what got guspc's panties in a bunch lol . Normally that many sb's would be great , in fact they are one game ahead of me but the lack of power will cost them . Now watch them win the whole thing. One thing I've learned on pc is to not get all wrapped up in stats . I once went 120-42 and got swept and another time I went 78-84 and only lost 1 playoff game .

Re: Crazy stats

that just happened to me too. 1st place, 110+ wins, mvp and cy young awards, and get swept, lol. then a weak ass team that limps into the playoffs, barely getting the last spot, and wins it all...
