If you follow Hockey, I have published sabermetric formulas on FanSided’s Too Many Men on the Site for hockey fans to read. I call it “Project Helium.” Now, I think it would be a good idea for me to publish a baseball sabermetrics formula. I realize that while virtually every baseball formula has already been written, there is always room for more analytical formulas in the world of advanced metrics.
The next phase of baseball sabermetrics is to value the RBI, which I am going to do in this article. Keep in mind that this is a very complex formula, so grab a chair and dig in
I call the actual sabermetrics formula RBI Decimal because it involves many numbers to the right of the decimal.
