I’m starting to think that my role in this community is to propose crazy ideas. Here is another one.
We always defense doesn’t matter in our game. There is an interesting stat that measures defense called out of above replacement. With stat cast data they know where everyone is at the start of the play and can measure how far defensive player have to move and eventually they’re able to figure out the probability that every player will make the catch in any situation and use that to calculate the outs above replacement. I think making outs above replacement a counting stat would be fun. It will also create a market for great defensive players.
To balance it we could split holds and saves into separate stats. I like this because it might encourage fantasy teams roster a more balanced pitching staff
