OPS+ compares his OPS to league average. WAR is comparing him to a replacement level player. Basically, the replacement level player is going to be less than the average MLB player. So OPS+ says that Tork is inferior to the average MLB player, his WAR indicates that he is better than a replacement level player.I suppose all of us could list a stat to be make things better or worse.

Gotcha. Thanks.OPS+ compares his OPS to league average. WAR is comparing him to a replacement level player. Basically, the replacement level player is going to be less than the average MLB player.

UZR/150.Mitch, find me ONE metric that shows him below average last year in the field. You know, just because you say someone out loud, doesn't make it true, right?
So I freaked our all I saw was headline on the internet that said
‘Skubal breaks ankle’
I freaked out because I thought it was another tiger injury.
Turns out it was just a nasty curveball.
You really need to learn how to use these metrics, Mitch.UZR/150.
You might be right I accidentally looked a Tork.You really need to learn how to use these metrics, Mitch.
There were 21 players in the AL that played at least 300 innings in RF. Carp's 7.2 UZR 150 was 5th best.
