New Splits on B-R
I had hoped to have these launched previous to the start of the season, but I wanted to get the announcement out there today in case you are checking the blog for the start of the season.
Baseball-Reference.com will be adding splits for
- Batting Vs. Pitchers on PED’s
- Batting vs. Pitchers not on PED’s
- Pitching Vs. Batters on PED’s
- Pitching vs. Batters not on PED’s
We’ve exhaustively researched this topic using player interviews and in some cases surreptitious drug testing to separate the clean from the dirty. At some point we are going to add a PED fudge factor to the neutralize tool as well to tell you what the player would have REALLY done.
We were going to roll this out for the football site as well, but, well, none of the stats would have changed.
April Fools…
That would be a pretty cool set of splits to see, though, if it were possible. While you’re at it, can you do Mickey Mantle’s splits for batting with or without a hangover?
