john/z28jdJay,being anal about stuff isnt a good reason to join SABR and if thats what they teach then i still want no part of it.I thought about joining it till everyone who sings its praises hides info from non-members and gloats about it in public.I'd rather pay money to sites like baseball-reference that dont try to hide stuff from you.Honestly,I'd love to click on a players name and its says"wouldnt you like to know his stats,pay money and ill share" that would be great.
Saying guys played in 4 decades is alot easier than saying,he played in the 60's,70's,80s and 90's which are 4 different recognized periods of time ending in -ties. If i told someone Ted Williams played in 4 different decades and they went into that little speech you went into id walk away from them whether they were technically and scientifically right or not.
