See post above your last.

so it isnt 10% of the over all production of the team
Yeah that’s basically the point I’m making.
You can’t turn it into a percentage of total team runs because the formula isn’t measuring team runs - it’s measuring player involvement in scoring plays.
Every run (outside of solo HR logic) is going to show up as both a run and an RBI across players, so when you total it up, it’s naturally going to exceed the actual team run total. That’s not a flaw - that’s just how participation works.
That’s why I’m not trying to say “he accounts for X% of the offense.” I’m saying he shows up in a high number of scoring events.
So, when you see a number like 76, it’s not “out of 33 runs” - it’s “how many times he was directly part of producing a run,” whether scoring it or driving it in.
Two different things entirely.
And also, Mad Dogg, going back to my original post, I never said anything about 10%.
That got brought in by someone else and they were arguing a completely different point than what I was saying.
I’m not talking about percentage of team runs at all. This is exactly what I said from the start, it’s just about runs a player is involved in (run productivity), not their share of total runs scored.

Sticking with my original assessment that y’all aren’t good with math. By your logic, a solo home run accounts for 2 runs, since one was driven in and scored. And there are 66 runs to account for. Maybe just talk ball and lay off the math?
Nope, let’s take Jake Brown for instance:
He has scored 43 runs, has 49 RBIs, and 16 home runs. Since home runs show up in both runs scored and RBIs, you subtract the number of home runs from the RBI total so it’s not being double counted. After that, you add the adjusted RBIs to runs scored to get total run productivity.
R + (RBI - HR) = run productivity
43 + (49 - 16) = 76 runs involved in producing
It’s not meant to be a perfect metric - it’s just a quick way to show how often he’s directly involved in producing runs without double counting home runs.

It equals run production, and the equation is actually runs + RBI - home runs. But since Reaves has no home runs, it's the same thing
Thanks, mdomingue, I wasn't going to try and explain it to him because he couldn't comprehend the initial post. He would probably get lost there.

So runs + RBI = runs?
Some serious math happening in this thread.
If he scored two runs and he hit another runner in (RBI) that means he accounted for 3 total runs scored.
Read the WHOLE statement before "trying" to be a smart arse.

The OP was to see what you (forum) wise thought it was that Jay sees.

He's being asked to keep the line moving and work the pitcher
If that’s the standard, then why is everyone killing Yorke when he’s got a higher OB%, higher slug, more walks, more HBPs, and more runs scored?
All I was saying is over the course of the season it’s been funny watching Reeves get a long leash while other guys never really got a shot. Especially in a year where Jay has been pretty willing to run underclassmen out there and let them prove something.
Wasn't trying to discredit his "last 4 games". He has done better and like Project P said played the best he has in the last 2 years but that's 4 games in 2 years.

and an RBI
Look, I get what you’re saying about better at-bats, but let’s not stretch “contributing” too far.
1 RBI in 4 games where the team put up 33 runs isn’t exactly driving the bus. Add in 2 runs scored and you’re talking about 3 total runs he’s directly accounted for out of 33. That’s not impact that’s just being in the lineup while others are doing the damage.
If you want to say he’s looked better at the plate, sure. But production matters, and right now the actual output still isn’t there. Stack a few more games with real run production, then the conversation changes.

While Stanny is out:
Hard for me to believe Reeves is really the best option in left field right now. His defense is mediocre at best, and the bat has been flat-out bad.
I do like that Jay is giving younger guys chances to prove themselves for next year and most of them are actually taking advantage of it. That part makes sense.
But then you look at guys like Yamin and Harden. Yeah, Yamin isn’t as fast as Reeves, but his bat is better in my opinion. And Harden hasn’t even gotten a real shot to show what he can do at least not the kind of leash Reeves keeps getting.
At some point, what are we doing here? If this is about development, then let everyone compete.

I'd like to see Cooper Williams start. Hold him to about 45 or 3 innings whichever comes first. Then follow with Ricken and Noot no particular order

@ #43(14th in the SEC), they have a much weaker SOS than LSU @ #21(11th in the SEC). Still not a cake walk and beat the teams that swept us, including sweeping Moo State
Those are facts and people don't like them. LSU should have swept Moo state as well, they just imploded. IF they don't implode the have a good chance of taking the series.

I get the call. You did see in the bottom 4th were it was 2nd and 3rd 1 out and they couldn't get a run in. I do see making them make the throw try and force an error. The same part of the line up was coming up in that part of the inning when they sent Curiel.

You mean him? made more errors in practice plays than Milam this whole season and pops up BP pitching?
