Statistics Calculator


I was thinking that a cool feature for the site would be a statistics calculator, where users could plug a player?s stats in, and brewerfan would calculate out some of the more complicated stats. This would be great for OXS, OPS+, VORP, etc...

 

I personally don't know where to find these stats all of the time and it would be fun to have them for the guys in the minors as well.

 

For example if you wanted to calculate VORP, you would click on a link and it would take you to a screen which briefly explained VORP, offered space to enter the necessary statistics, and finally calculated it out.

 

I'm not sure how hard this would be to construct, but it seems like it could be a pretty valuable tool.

OPS+ and VORP aren't really calculatable by us mere mortals... OPS+ is normalized to the league, and VORP is even more mystical (hence why many non-statheads and even statheads) only give it a certain amount of value.

 

OXS is simply OBP x OXS, and any kind of calculator I would put online wouldn't be any more advanced than a pocket calculator...

 

I'm not opposed to doing this type of thing, but it would probably only make sense for some statistics...
