Hot take

Mike Elias, if you wanna be cheap, then sign Adolis Garcia.

Non-tendered with THAT average exit velo is diabolical and I want you to make the Rangers feel bad for it.

I would love to see this looked into with more depth, but I wanted to share!

The higher an EOBD, the more adept they were at getting on base via their eye.

It's an early concept but I think the application of this can separate players in an interesting way.

If a player's career OBD is high enough, a change in hitting philosophy could result in production skyrocketing!

Furthermore, I propose another stat, Earned On-Base Differential (EOBD)

In a similar way to how OPS adds OBP and SLG, EOBD would be a function of:

EOBD = EOBP - AVG

For example again, Aaron Judge's EOBD:

EOBD = .424 - .331

EOBD = .093

The whole point is to show a player's raw ability to draw walks.

The basic function would be something like:

EOBP = H + BB - IBB / AB + BB - IBB

For example: Aaron Judge's EOBP last year:

EOBP = 179 + 124 - 36 / 541 + 124 - 36

EOBP = .424

EOBP would take the function of OBP and take away any factors outside of a hitter's control.

Intentional walks would be subtracted from the player's walk total because they had no part in actually drawing the walk

Sac-flies are outs, and will be treated as such

HBP is under a pitcher's control

An open letter to Baseball

Why on earth do pitchers have a stat that removes elements out of their control like ERA in relation to RA/9, but hitters don't have something similar for OBP?

I propose a new stat, simply referred to as Earned On-Base Percentage (EOBP)

Okay I'm actually gonna start using this as a proper account now. Still gonna get Baseball and Mets memes, just you're gonna have to deal with me being insufferable as a whole too.

me waking up to watch the mets on a daily basis

my brain: it is 3 in the morning go to bed
my friends: all asleep
me: jonah spins :)))

back on my bs

Can we have the conversation about firing Eric Chavez

pov you're a high and inside fastball being pitched to Juan Soto as it whizzes into the catchers mitt to be called for a ball

Jeff McNeil I love you

fun fact: if Juan Soto had the same differential between BA and OBP with his Expected BA and Expected Slugging %, he'd be slashing:

.299/.431/.590

OPS of 1.021

Despite the fact he's gotten supremely unlucky, his OPS is .800 anyways :3

love the casual gum chew too lmaoo

I can't believe Canning got Ohtani to trigger the bailout animation in MLB The Show and caught him looking 😭😭😭
