A hitter-friendly park will have a higher Park Factor greater than 100, while a pitcher friendly park, like C.O. Brown Stadium, will have a Park Factor less than 100. These factors are used to adjust advanced player performance metrics in order to put all players on a level playing field.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n<strong>pythW-L (Pythagorean Record) \u2013 <\/strong>A team\u2019s expected win loss record based on their runs scored and allowed.

Positive numbers are better for hitters, negative numbers are better for pitchers. This weighs every event on a true value scale. Example: A double with bases loaded and no outs is much more valuable than a double with bases empty and two outs.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n<strong>Run Expectancy Matrix \u2013 <\/strong>A matrix that shows the expected runs for each of the 24 base-out states. By my syntax, a 0 indicates that the base is empty, while a 1,2, or 3 signifies an occupied base. Example: 100 is a runner on first, 023 is runners on second and third.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n<strong>Run Line \u2013 <\/strong>A betting line that is designed to be a 50\/50 point. The team that is the \u201cfavorite\u201d will likely have a negative line, ex: -1.5. This is the number of runs to add or subtract to the final score before determining a winner. It is for betting purposes only, as there are no half-runs in baseball.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n<strong>Run Probability Matrix \u2013 <\/strong>Similar to a Run Expectancy Matrix, but displays the probability of run scoring at any point after each of the 24 base-out states.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n<strong>SECA (Secondary Average) \u2013 <\/strong>While batting average measures hits per at-bat, secondary average measures extra-bases gained independent to batting average per at-bat.

For hitters, wOBA is used to determine how many runs a player adds to his team above average. This number is added to an average team\u2019s Pythagorean formula to indicate how many wins are added by the player\u2019s performance. For pitchers, xR9 is used to determine how many runs a pitcher allows on the mound, and this adjusts the Pythagorean formula only for innings that the pitcher has appeared in. This indicated how many wins are added by the pitcher\u2019s performance.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n<strong>wOBA (Weighted On-Base Average) \u2013 <\/strong>OPS is simple to calculate but has faults, as OBP and SLG are not worth equal amounts. wOBA uses run expectancy to give linear weights to each offensive outcome, and combines this into one comprehensive number, which is weighted to the same scale as OBP.\r\n\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload wp-image-229 aligncenter\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-orig-src=\"http:\/\/jackbanks.web.illinois.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/image-15.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\r\n \r\n\r\n<strong>wRC+ (Weight Runs Created Plus) \u2013 <\/strong>Similar to OPS+, wRC+ uses wOBA to estimate how many runs a player creates, improving on the simple RC statistic.
