Back To Board

Right but....

Posted By Tim A.

Sure its the real stats that matter.... or more to the point its the real stats as adjusted by ballpark factors and league factors.

Certainly the grades are a "quick snapshot" or "estimate." However, those numbers are surely based on a formula that relates back to the real stats. So it stands to reason that if a players grade goes up (or down) when the ballpark adjustments are made the reason is that his ballpark adjusted stats improved (or got worse) relative to the general population.

So I would assume that to say that the grade is meaningless would probably not be telling 100% of the story.

Am I missing something in my assessment?
