More like Top 2, since all of the Top 11 are Tigers.Rotinaj;1458888 wrote:Fielder is a top 11 hitter in baseball.

Really good hitter, but not top 10/11.
They don't, but I can see where you're coming from, since the stats are all presented side by side.Ironman92;1459009 wrote:I'm not looking to argue....but looking at the batting value at #14....he's getting destroyed in the base running and defensive categories.....how can those figure in to a hitter?
As far as I can tell, each of those are just the component stats for total WAR.Ironman92;1459020 wrote:Ok....so all of those stats aren't figured in to batting value?

Rotinaj;1459029 wrote:I was joking w top 11 thing. Also, a stat that determines runs are worth more in certain parks just seems stupid to me.
Eh, I'd argue that runs created does the best job of taking into account hitting ability, but I mean batting value also reflects wRC+ so I think those are the two best categories. Look at who is ahead of Prince in those categories, and it's hard to say he belongs ahead of them (*for the most part*)Ironman92;1459026 wrote:I was thinking these look far more needed for Total War.....not who is a top 10 hitter
