Pivoting In the Wake of Injuries, Beating BABIP & Timing Risk

Pivoting In the Wake of Injuries, Beating BABIP & Timing Risk

Published 4 years, 2 months ago
Description

Eno and DVR discuss how leagues can consider making structural changes to account for the 2021 rise in time lost to injuries, using BABIP as a launching point to dig deeper on a player's batted-ball profile (and the viability of xBA as a BABIP alternative), and taking an appropriate amount of injury risk in lieu of high-risk, high-reward prospects in redraft leagues.
