Wouldn't be my first choice of stat to add to the game, but nothing against it since it would still improve the game statistically wise. Personally would prefer theExtrapolated Runs (XR) stat. |

tamale Joined: 02/19/2018 Posts: 357 Concord Jets II.2 | I agree that there isn't much point trying to calculate game-specific park factors or weightings. But if added I'd definitely still use a generic version of wOBA, even if it isn't perfect. | ||

lmartins6746 Joined: 06/01/2021 Posts: 60 Asheville Aces V.10 | as someone who plays almost exclusively on mobile, I'm all for having the hover stats on a stats page. Even just some buttons for vs RH/LH splits would be great. | ||
