Sabermetrics FAQ

Seanny Rotten — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 01:36:09 -0000

When I'm looking at someone's range factor (like Pablo Sandoval this year) and I see his RF/g is higher than the league average for third basemen, BUT his RF/9 innings is LOWER than the league average ... what accounts for that? What does that mean? Does that mean because one metric says he's above average and the other below he's exactly average?

Where besides Baseball Prospectus can I find a listing of league leaders in EQA? I love that stat, and I think it's the greatest baseball stat ever, but I don't feel like paying BP for the privilege of looking up something.

How can I listen to the dodgers on the radio if I'm in Ventura County? 790AM only works about as far west as Simi Valley and Westlake Village. Thousand Oaks is bad and anything past the Conejo Grade is abysmal.

I have scoured the official Dodgers website, no luck. I remember they used to put the info on the little schedules they'd hand out at 76 - no dice anymore. And before any of you wiseguys tell me I can get it on XM, I'd rather not pay any money if I already have Sirius.

So is there a database somewhere? Some hidden part of the official website? I even googled "dodger radio broadcast ventura 805" - nothing.

Start 'em young, right?

Hey ya know what? Wouldn't it be cool if my son could play football and if Rick is still coaching 18 years from now (he'd be in his early 60's ... hopefully after several Rose Bowls and NC's)

This is me, holding my son Jake in the end zone. He was 4 months old in this pic.

You can't see it but he's wearing a UCLA shirt and I'm wearing a "Howland is my Homeboy" shirt.

Just like I promised. This is Jacob with his uncle - still rockin' the Manny cap.

That is my son, Jake. He is 4 months old. This was at the game the Dodgers beat Zito in LA. Depending on how many comments/ recommendations I get I'll post another.
