Armchair Fantasy Baseball: Archives / Re: Need New Scoring System
« on: October 07, 2013, 10:44:50 PM »
These are my suggestions.
Offense
A single is equal to a walk. For Lando's suggestion above a walk would need to equal 2.5 points.
No bonus points for a HR, in the current system a HR is worth 8 points (H, R, 2RBI, 4 TB) in the above suggestion it would be worth 13 (H, 2 HR,2RBI, 2 R, 6 TB) not counting the RBIs
Runs and RBIs 1 point each, these are highly dependent on the team in front of and behind the player in the lineup.
Minimal K penalty if any, after all it is just another out. I would suggest -.25 points per out as the league average in 2013 was .253 batting average. DP would count as 2.
I like total bases being worth 1.5 as it rewards power
Net Steals +1.5, extra bases taken +1, This rewards baserunning and makes the speedy guys be valued closer to the power guys
Defense
Assists .3, Putouts .1 This eliminates the big advantage 1B and C get by being the primary out makers. Errors = -2, This some what equalizes the error difference between infielders and outfielders
Pitching
IP = 3
Wins +3, Losses -3, These are very team dependent statistics.
Holds and Saves are equal at +2, Blown Saves -3 again team dependent stats.
walks allowed -1, TB allowed x -1 Can't score if they can't get on base
Earned Runs Allowed -1
Ks +1
A bonus of +3 for a High Quality Start (7IP <3ER)
A bonus of +3 for a complete game, +5 for a shutout
Fantasy Baseball is about the the individual players, so the individual stats should be focused on the stats that takes the team around the player to also be good should be lowered in value.
