Offense:
- On Base % is more important than Batting Average
- Steals generally are useless because the risk outweighs the reward.
Myth:
That sabermetrics is the end-all and be-all...and there is only one way to do it.
I have read it front to back a few times.
Interesting stuff - but if you steal over 95% of the bases attempted - they might want to re-evaluate the risk thing.
It can turn a nothing inning - into a something inning.
IMO.
