Message: [QUOTE="upperdeck, post: 4290834, member: 474"] and there is the issue with War.. its either way too high or its way too low.. Im not sure which makes more sense. the worst team, no matter how bad is gonna win 50-60 games.. the 62 mets won 40, 50 is pretty much the baseline right now.. so if you remove someone like judge from the yankees and they lose alot the most wins they lose is around 50.. but the numbers are adjusted for what happens over a 162 game season. You could put their AAA team out there and probably still win 40. the Math guy in my head wonders then if War is really only a function of the games you win above that 50-60 number. if WAR is Wins above replacement and your team doesnt win is it really WAR?
