Subject: Pitching Statistics, Part II

Here is an updated list of pitcher statistics (in terms of SWP) through 7/20.
This chart pertains to starters only.
The Weighted Schedule column is a weighted average of the team road and home factors for the remaining games left on a team's schedule. It does not factor in the home team's ballpark (I anticipate this column will be used primarily to judge whether or not to buy a given pitcher; if so, that pitcher's historical performance already (likely) reflects the home park of the given team).

So let me get this straight - I might consider picking up a houston pitcher, say Elerton, ESPECIALLY at home, because Enron appears to be a pitcher's park? I guess all those dingers don't add up to alot of points.
Am I getting this right? Maybe some footnotes are in order.
In any case, GREAT WORK MADMAN!

biliruben, I'm not really sure how awful a place to pitch HOU really is. But, putting that aside, here are some other general comments.
First, HOU can be deemed a SW Starting Pitcher park for a number of reasons, even if they give up an extra half a dinger. For example, starting pitchers in HOU throw the third most pitches of starters in any ballpark (more pitches usually means more points), and they last the 5th longest there. That is likely the result of a combination of factors. The ERA is relatively high in HOU, but that doesn't necessarily matter to you, the SW manager, if it can be outweighed by other factors.
Secondly, when considering a pitcher like Elarton, the primary consideration is his pitching average. Then I would look at the weighted schedule (a nice +3.5). I would look primarily at HOU's ballpark factor for helping me to decide on certain matchups. In terms of holding Elarton long-term, that ballpark factor (if accurate) is already included in his actual average.
As far as footnotes go, yes, I should. But I've got to take a break. I played around in Excel quite awhile to get a format I liked, and the "weighted schedule" feature was a nightmare to program.

First off, a legit thanks for the compliments. The above took some work, but I've automated the procedure now so I can change colors easily, as well as update the table on demand.
I just can't resist this; I am very intrigued by the question you raised, biliruben: Is Enron a hitter's park?
Location | H/IP | ERA
|
---|
HOU | 1.08 | 5.38
| Not HOU | 1.14 | 5.44
|
HOU represents games by both teams at HOU.
Not HOU is the record of both teams when HOU is on the road.
I think HomEron is a media-created myth. The comparisons are always relative to the Astrodome (one of the worst HR parks in history), and always relative to last year, when HOU had a great staff. Furthermore, the comparisons never do what I'm doing above -- compare the teams in the HOU games when they are in HOU to those same teams when they are NOT in HOU. It is true that the ERA in Enron is one of the 10 worst in baseball (5.38). But what's not said is that those same teams playing elsewhere are even worse!
So, I repeat: Is Enron a hitter's park?

Madman, Guru Jr - In all due respect, I say yes, Enron is a hitter's park.
* That term HomEron Field was made up by Lima and fellow Stro pitchers after what they witnessed in the pre-season and the first 2 weeks of the season. With that short porch, even Lima and Holt hit HRs on a regular basis during BP.
* Veteran Gary Sheffield actually said that Enron was much easier to hit HRs in than notorious Coors. Did he say that in response to a media-created myth? Nope, he said it after inflicting serious damage there.
* I've seen all too many times, Enron HRs resulting from batted balls that appear to be routine pop-outs.
Personally, I don't use hyrogliphic extrametrical contricular methaslophorbic pitching statistic charts to make decisions for me. Not only can they be decieving, but IMHO, I find them to be over-kill, non-sports talk-like and thus non-fun. I'll take MLB player quotes, what I've actually seen and gut instincts over them and continue to avoid Stro pitchers.

Madman:
While I find your chart extremely colorful(I love the pretty purple one), and most of it informative, I also must take SERIOUS issue with you regarding Enron field. I think you are WAY WAY off base.
I hate to do this(just not my thing), but let's bring some statistics into this Enron thing.
1st-YOU can not group the American league with the National League when comparing ERA's. That is simply comparing apples to oranges and you KNOW it. If anyone else reading this doesn't understand why, I'll defer you to Madman.
OK, on to the good stuff.
When comparing ERA's in the NATIONAL league only we find that only the Rockies(5.63) have a poorer ERA than the Astro pitchers(5.51). Care to guess who is 3rd??(the answer will appear at the bottom, no peeking) Coincidence-perhaps, let's continue.
HR's given up by pitching staffs, Tied for 1st place, YOU guessed it Colorado and Houston 146 each. Care to guess 3rd? Which pitching has given up the most runs? Houston(586) FOLLOWED by the Rockies(559). Care to guess 3rd?
I suppose you can AND WILL argue, "well that's because those 2 pitching staffs suck", perhaps. So let's give YOU more data and statistics. Only this time let's check out the Houston hitters- HOME vs. AWAY. YOU will NOT be able to dispute this data.
I think for comparison the best way to look at this data is simply to give you the numbers.
The Houston Astros have hit a total of 147 HR's. 80 at home vs. 67 away. Big deal you say right?
WRONG, that only tells part of the story. HERE IS THE CLINCHER; The Astros have hit those 67 away HR's in 1751 official AB's for a ratio of 1 every 26.13 AB's. The Astro's have hit their 80 HOME Hr's in ONLY 1581 AB's, for an incredible ratio of 1 every 19.76 AB's. That is a STAGGERING DIFFERENCE. Wouldn't you agree?
NOW, I'd love to hear your arguement as to REALLY why Enron favors pitchers.
The Chicago Cubs, who just happen to play in Wrigley Field aka "The Friendly Confines"

I would agree with the assessment that you should avoid Stro pitchers.
I'll grant you that more home runs will be hit down the left field line. But I don't see why it is implausible that the benefit hitters get from that particular dimension of the park is largely offset by the large centerfield area or the air-conditioning or some other effect.
I think your Gary Sheffield quote is reason enough to ignore the quotes from MLB players. There is no comparison between the two parks (Coors and Enron) in terms of their overall effect on the game.
Statistics can be deceiving, but so can quotes from pitchers who have lost their confidence and their change-up. At least you can calculate the probability of statistics being "deceiving".
Finally, it is logically impossible to have a chart make a decision for you. All decisions are based on statistics and data, either implicit or explicit. A "gut" feeling is no more than your brain computing a bunch of observances and synthesizing it in some way so that you believe it makes sense. What statistics and evidence you expose your brain to prior to the formulation of the gut feeling is all that is at issue here.
Most of us inadvertently expose ourselves to biased points of view if we rely solely on anecdotal statistics and data collection like you advocate; the primary advantage of carefully constructed statistical data is that it washes away those biases and forces us to see the world from different view points. If you can accomplish that mental flexibility without statistics, good for you. The majority of us lay people need a reality check from time to time, however.

Sheffield hit 2 amazing HR's at Enron, one way way way out, the other just barely. The blast landed on top of the big wall out there and bounced out of the stadium. The other was one of the finest displays of power/worst displays of park design I've ever seen. I love Sheffield and he has immense power but if anybody saw that high and tight pitch he took over for an Enron will know the field is just a tad short. That said, that was an awesome display of power.

WaB You asked for my arguments for why Enron "favors" pitchers:
I repeat my assessment in post 4 that the reason Enron has been relatively favorable to SW managers this year is because the pitchers tend to go a bit deeper in the game, thus more SWP's.
The differential in HR's for the HOU batters is striking (although after just today the rate for the road games has now dropped to below 26). I've never argued that fewer HR's will be hit at Enron. In fact, I would argue the opposite -- more HR's will be hit in all likelihood.
But, there are two pertinent questions here.
First, what is the effect on starting pitchers in terms of SWP's? Neglible so far this year. In fact, starting pitchers have done BETTER there than you'd expect. This is the question I tried to provide evidence for or against with the table, above.
Second, does Enron help hitters? The answer to the second can be different from the answer in the first. And I didn't have direct evidence in the table, thus my post 5 to address this separate question.
In terms of overall numbers, I don't see a statistically significant difference, especially concerning data from starting pitchers (data from post 5) which is much broader in scope than the numbers you present above -- the starting pitching data has earned runs scored by the offenses of HOU AND the opposition. The second group there you leave out. And HR's are but a piece of overall offensive effectiveness, albeit a big piece.
Finally, it's interesting you should point out Coors. They indeed have a worse ERA than HOU (5.63 to 5.51 or so). However, check out their relative ERA'S. Hou's ERA is basically identical Home/Away. Colorado's splits are 6.63 to 4.76 home to road. Hmmmm. If Enron is ANYWHERE close to Coors, wouldn't you see something similar?
Thus, I still do not see any signficant evidence to indicate that Enron is, in aggregate, a hitter's park. In leiu of something striking, and because I believe statistics can lie, I see no reason to believe it.
And the media-hype that HOU should be treated anything like Coors (like Rotonews does, for example), still hasn't been supported by any arguments I've read. And even rotonews has now issued a caveat that their color scheme warnings for Enron may have been premature.

A powerhouse thread! Might good analysis, rationale and written communication skills! Especially biliruben's post #6. Very concise.
Madman, your chart is most useful. KB 8ers GM, to each his own, right? I think Madman was most eloquent in his appropriate use of these stats. It's a take it or leave it thang.
WaB, tall order going toe to toe with the Madman of stat analysis...but I respect your HR ratios. However, as Madman alluded to, HRs are not the entire piece of the Enron puzzle. To me, I think one has to take all of the available information (stats, player's quotes, quality of Houston pitching, and one's own biases) and do their own internal regression equation. In these cases, I'm the sure the error variances will be large though!
Either way, good job, Madman, I really like the colors, too!

I think a distinction needs to be made. WaB makes good points that support the fact that Enron is a very good homerun hitting park for righties. But that does not make it a hitter's park. I do not know all the dimensions but Ido know it is a very fair 320-325 to right field line and 436 to center. Sheffield found it easy because left-center is the problem area. That said, more homeruns for righties does not make it a hitter's park. I think the biggest stat that cannot be ignored is Madman's on home/away ERA splits. Those are really convincing. So, Houston hits more HR at home? You would expect with their top two guys being righties that this would be true.

Madman, you are right that Enron has turned into more of a pitchers' park than hitters' park this year. That doesn't necessarily mean that it will stay that way but it has been that way so far. Baseball Prospectus figures out park effects similar to the way you do. I'm not sure exactly how they calculate it but they have Enron as a pitchers park. Here are their park effects that they used to calculate their pitcher statistics.
COLORADO ROCKIES 54.20% TEXAS RANGERS 14.50% CLEVELAND INDIANS 13.70% BOSTON Red Sox 8.40% PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES 7.90% KC Royals 6.30% MINNESOTA TWINS 5.10% TB Drays 4.70% TORONTO BJ 4.70% ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS 3.20% OAKLAND ATHLETICS 3.20% DETROIT TIGERS 1.40% SEATTLE MARINERS 1.40% PITTSBURGH PIRATES 0.90% MILWAUKEE BREWERS 0.30% CINCINNATI REDS -0.30% CHICAGO White Sox -0.90% MONTREAL EXPOS -1.90% CALIFORNIA ANGELS -2.50% CHICAGO CUBS -2.90% BALTIMORE ORIOLES -5.70% STL CARDINALS -6.90% HOUSTON ASTROS -7.30% SF GIANTS -7.30% NY METS -8.40% NY YANKEES -9.80% ATLANTA BRAVES -11.60% LA Dodgers -14.50% FLORIDA MARLINS -20.00% SD PADRES -29.10%

Enron's dimsensions(from astros.com)
Left Field Foul Line: 315 feet Left Field Power Alley: 362 feet Center Field: 435 feet Outfield Deepest Point: 436 feet Right Field Power Alley: 373 feet Right Field Foul Line: 326 feet
Clearly, to left it favors righty power hitters. Not counting environmental effects that I am unaware of that effect the travel of the ball, one can say that the park is fairly generous to the power allies. For a team like Houston, with fly ball pitchers, it is clearly not beneficial. Is it worse than Coors? No way. Many parks have similar dimensions. Enron is basically Camden yards to left, Old Tiger Stadium to center and Yankee Stadium to right.

Anyone have access to home/road data broken down by month or week? I ask because it might be possible that Enron, like the BOB, has different effects depending on whether the roof is open or closed.

Mark L - they close and/or open the roof in the middle of games, so I'm not sure what you will find by month. You can't even check by game. I know watching Wednesday, they commented on the effects on a popup to right that fell between Berkman and ? Spiers saying they had opened the roof in the last half inning and 'look what it did to that pop up'.

Wow. This thread had gotten buried, and I had all but forgotten about it! Glad to see it was useful to someone.
The Weighted Schedule component wasn't as easily updated, so I'll have to drop that until further notice. Sorry.

One thing to look at is the differences between the two tables. If a ball club's adjustment factor has changed substantially, that obviously is an indication that it is very hot or cold. Act accordingly.
statistics in terms of SWP, through 3402 starts (8/10).

Thanks for the update to the Albert O. Hirschman of Rotoguru.com :)
Steve H -- the only place that I have ever seen an "open/closed" breakdown for the BOB (or any other park) is in the STATS Inc. Green Book. I know they do pitch-by-pitch tracking of every game so they have the data to make the comparison, even if the roof position is changed mid-game. What I haven't been able to find is any mid-season data like this for BOB or any other open/closed park (Toronto, Safeco, Enron). Gotta be out there somewhere . . .
