Enhancement Request: OBP - LOI
Posted: Sun Jun 24, 2012 8:11 pm
Every season that nears completion (like now), our head coach asks if I can figure out who on the team has the best OBP when Leading Off an Inning (LOI). We have several players that seem to be very good - however, I can't say for sure unless I do extensive research.
Although the game Lead-off hitter is guaranteed only once per game to actually lead off an inning - that 1st inning lead-off position is critical and the Coach would like to factor in the OBP-LOI along with other parameters (like foot speed, bat power, BAw/RSP, Strike-out ratio, etc) in choosing the best Game Lead-off hitter.
iScore already does BA w/RSP, FPS% and OBP - which are wonderful tools for the coaches (they don't help in scoring a game) . . . but, could iScore do something (easily??) in determining OBP-LOI (OnBasePercentage_whenLeadingOff_an_Inning) for each player?
Thanks.
