2087 Season Thread - I fought the law and I won

Defensive and steals inflated WAR numbers.

I feel like its the opposite for defense tbh

[Cnasty]

I have always felt that any positive defensive performance will highly inflate the WAR numbers along with steals.

It is a very uneducated guess but I have seen it with some of my guys that are fantastic hitters and I only use them at DH and they have good but not great numbers. I put them in the OF and they have good defensive metrics and they see a 1-2WAR bump with the same hitting numbers.

Again, its a "feeling" and I haven't done any research on it.

[Cnasty]

I mean look at JJV.

Dude had a paltry 91 OPS+ last year and put up 6WAR.

[TheGobOne]

I mean, steals and good defense do help win games so it makes sense. It's just how much is probably the question.

[TheGobOne]

Well we have some tiebreakers!! File going up shortly.

Well we have some tiebreakers!! File going up shortly.

would have thought record vs opponent would matter in a divisional tie before going to a tiebreaker. Oh well, we should have went 5-1 instead of 4-2

Beef were 4 games back at All Star break, 2 1/2 games back on September 1st.....but the Beef choked playing obviously the hardest schedule between the 2 teams the past month. We'll take the choking, we don't mind the extra revenue from wildcard games

not hard to close out and go 7-0 against 2 of the worst teams in the NDL.

just upload your file so we can get it over with. We are going with Emery over Chamberlain in the tie-breaker. Chamberlain usually doesn't do well against Hollywood so going with the flier here. Would have went with Mills but he isn't rested so went with the 2nd best option.
