Entertaining and Informative
This
is a great book if you are interested in baseball at all, and is very
easy to read even if you don't know much about statistics. It's full of
interesting facts and figures, and does a great job explaining what
each rating and score is, and why it is important to the game of
baseball. I learned a lot about the history of baseball reading this,
and the writing style is great for just sitting down and reading - not
dry and boring, like you would expect a stats book to be. Highly
recommended! - 5 Stars.

Randy
Johnson - #5 (1988-2009) |
From
Stat
Geek Baseball's, the Best Ever Book
Standing 6'10 inches tall, Johnson looked, at times, like he was
pitching from all angles, angles that propelled the ball so quickly
toward the plate that the batter had no chance to react. Often regarded
as the last pitcher who is ever going to win 300 games when he
accomplished the feat in 2009 (we don't thnk that's going to be true,
by the way), Johnson was a compelling figure on the mound throughout
his stays with Montreal, Seattle, the Yanks, and Arizona. What Johnson
lacked compared to both Clemens and Maddux, his two mates who are
ranked above him, was consistency in some seasons and a rather late
start to his dominance It wasn't until Johnson pitched for Seattle in
1993 in the year he turned 30 years old that Randy had a stellar,
All-Star caliber season. But once he hit that stride, for the next
dozen seasons, with exceptions for 1996 and 2003, Johnson was likely
the man most hitters did not want to face. Part delivery. Part
intimidation. Part 6'10" of nasty.
Johnson struck more men out than everyone but Nolan Ryan and
his
Strikeout to Walk ratio was amazing for a pitcher with that
many
K's. And while he did lack the quick career start or dogged
consistency of Maddux in the era, when Johnson dominated, he
dominated, leading his team in Arizona to a World Series
victory
in 2001, and winning the Cy Young Award for four
consecutive years
from 1999 to 2002.

What is PEVA?
PEVA is the acronym for Stat Geek Baseball's New Player Rating value.
This grade is given to each player and pitcher each season,
rating
their performance on a peer to peer review. Six components
for
pitchers and batters are melded together into the PEVA Rating, which
ranges each year from 0.200 to 64.000. For more information on PEVA and
the other new baseballevaluation.com Stats, see our Definitions
page. PEVA ratings are available for every pitcher and hitter
in baseball history. |
PEVA Scale
64.000 - Maximum
32.000 - Cy Young/MVP Candidate
20.000 - All League
15.000 - All-Star Level
10.000 - Very Good
3.500 - Average
0.200 - Minimum |
