WPA as a rate stat

[sbrylski]

What would it be?

 

WPA / PA ?

 

I'm sure its out there, what is it called?

Not sure WPA works as a rate stat since its so state dependent.

what do you mean by "state dependent"?

A double with the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth and down by one is worth a lot more than a double with nobody on in the first.

 

It depends on the game situation.

as well it should. Thanks!

Also, WPA can be negative anyway. Of course, a mediocre player constantly placed in a position to win games will probably have a nice WPA.
