Aging Patterns
July 1, 2002 - F James Mohl
Do you feel the Linear Weights Ratio is a much better measure of offensive performance than OPS? If so, what evidence do you have? If not, may I suggest you use OPS+ in your future studies? Not only will this take care of the adjustments for park and year which you indicate are necessary, but it will make it easier to incorporate your findings with other studies that are OPS+ based. In fact, if you use Baseball Reference data, you will have available not only OPS+, but BA+, OBP+ and Slg+ (and, indirectly, Isolated Power+), so you can easily determine if different skills decay at different rates.
