A few people have asked me why I never talk about a batter's average in particular countries. There's a really simple reason for that.
A few people have asked me why I never talk about a batter's average in particular countries. There's a really simple reason for that.
There just isn't enough international cricket played - particularly not international test cricket - to make most of those "averages in a country" statistics meaningful in any way.
There's so much randomness in results that looking at a sample size of (say) 12 innings is nuts.
There's so much randomness in results that looking at a sample size of (say) 12 innings is nuts.
What do I mean "randomness?" Well let's think about it this way. Each ball there's a chance that a batter will get runs, not get runs or get out. For the best batters, that risk of getting out will generally be lower, and it will fluctuate throughout an innings.
If you're starting out in data science (or if your wondering what you need to learn), don't believe everything you read. 🧵

1/7 🧵: What is wRC+ in Baseball? ⚾️
Ever heard of the #baseball stat wRC+? It stands for Weighted Runs Created Plus, and it's a great way to evaluate a hitter's overall offensive performance. Let's break it down in this thread!👇 #MLB #Stats

2/7 🧵: wRC Basics
Before understanding wRC+, we need to grasp wRC (Weighted Runs Created). wRC estimates the number of runs a player contributes to their team. It does so by weighting each offensive action (like hits, walks, etc.) based on their run-scoring potential.

3/7 🧵: Why wRC+?
wRC is a useful stat, but it's not perfect. wRC+ takes it a step further by accounting for factors like ballpark dimensions and league-wide scoring. This makes wRC+ a more accurate representation of a hitter's performance. #AdvancedStats

✅ Dividir los datos disponibles en dos (o más) conjuntos. Se entrena el modelo con un conjunto de entrenamiento y luego se mide su rendimiento en un conjunto de prueba. Así obtienes una estimación del rendimiento del modelo en datos que no ha visto antes

I always thought it was funny how in the stats books, they'd always tell you of this magical P-Value level of 0.05.
You either reject (p > 0.05) or fail to reject (keep it when p <= 0.05).
So naturally, I'd do whatever I could to get my p-values under 0.05.
