Yes you have no clue of how WAR, works, I still believe you are trolling, pretty good in fact, because someone can't be this ignorant.

 

I made a rational explanation of why I don't believe in the stat.

 

I doubt that you can take what I stated and dispute any of it. In other words, you are just clueless jackass who likes to annoy people. I assume you are very good at that.

My answer is above...accumulative stats rolled into one. Just because they don't lay down a constant/predictive answer to wins, doesn't mean it isn't effective? The result is predictive to the clubs talent, it's going to be close, very close. The best baseball gives at the moment, unless you've came up with a better formula?

 

P.S. That was far from rational, have you heard of sample sizes, in silly dumb retarded results you've came up with, yes it is irrational you stunned f***ing twat.

Why do you seem to think WAR is equal to a hockey player's +/-? If Aaron Loup blows 5 games, you could argue he's directly responsible for 5 losses to the Jays or you could say his ridiculously MLB leading 24% HR/FB rate resulted in several of those BS as a fluke. WAR is there so you can simply put a value on a player, not to directly associate a player with a win today or a loss tomorrow. Travis being in the line up had nothing to do with the Jays losing games. It's a f***ing team sport and there is no reason why Ryan Goins should be playing over Travis when comparing the value each player provides to the team individually.

 

Did you know Kawasaki was in the Jays line up during 2013's 11 game winning streak? I guess we should start him over Travis too.

nextyear might understand WAR, but he doesn't understand the central role randomness plays in the universe.

 

He wants WAR to tell us what would have truly happened to a player's team had the player not been present for his appearances. That question is impossible to answer.

 

Hence my latter explanation to his retardedness.

Not to mention a joke in how he explains it? Are you kidding me North, this guy's an Engineer my ass. He's stuck on a record while guys are in the game or not, that's short bus level of ignorance, period.

He thinks we should with Goins, he's already said it, he doesn't get it, or we're getting trolled to f***.

Yeah, like Travis is lucky to get to balls, and Goins is smooth and a winner...*sighs*

Didn't Goins just fight his way back to 0 WAR?

I would hate to have him come up in September. At this point, with 40/60% of his knee gone, I treat him like a left-handed Colabello in LF.

Not gonna lie, I completely forgot he's on this team.

 

If he had a healthy year I expected at least 20 bombs, .270 average, +3 WAR from him.

Sooo I'm looking at ticket prices for the Jays game on Saturday. I bought these tickets with a flex pack for roughly $60-$70. Now they're going for $180-$300. Bitches be cray

Not just this but guys take time to get their timing back... could take weeks... why should we handicap the team like that in the final stretch #MakesNoSense
