Demon,

Juan Pierre .293 BA
Prince Fielder .288 BA

Juan is a better hitter than Prince, right?

[/ QUOTE ]

there are like 10 other ways to compare batters (and there are different kinds of batters), i dont know many other ways to compare fielders besides errors and fielding % (and there arent that many ways to play shortstop)



so ur analogy is terrible

[/ QUOTE ]I don't know what's worse - saying he can't find more than one fielding stat or that there are only 10 ways to compare hitters.

1) i said i responded quickly and fielding % is the quickest way to check fielding stats

2) saying that i believe there's only 10 ways to compare hitters shows your incomprehension becuase i was just throwing a number out there, which is pretty clear to any observant reader

3)i agree that (number of balls hit in area / balls fielded) is another very good measure of comparing fielders, but like i said, i responded quickly and just went to mlb.com to refute what the OP said about Hanley being a better fielder than Rollins

u guys are blowing what i said way out of proportion

4) saying rollins was clutch is not a level if you watched the 2nd half of the season
