Baseball Stats: Rate and "Plus" Stats (OPS, wOBA, FIP, etc.)

SLUGGING PERCENTAGE (SLG) CORRECTION: The scale for Slugging Percentage (SLG) looks something like this: Poor: .310 Below Average: .360 Average: .410 +/- .15 Above Average: .450 Great: .500 Elite: .600 I mistakenly kept the scale for OBP up for SLG! Sorry about that. ==== This is the second video in a five-part comprehensive guide to baseball statistics. I'll update this description as needed, but the title says it all. This is a hefty video where we talk about baseball stats like: Batting Average (AVG) On-Base Percentage (OBP) Slugging Percentage (SLG) On-Base plus Slugging (OPS) Weighted On-Base Average (wOBA) Reference wOBA (rOBA) Isolated Power (ISO) Walk-to-Strikeout Rate (BB/K) Batting Average on Balls in Play (BABIP) Earned Run Average (ERA) Walks + Hits Per Inning Pitched (WHIP) Runs Allowed per 9 (RA9) Fielding Independent Pitching (FIP) Expected FIP (xFIP) Strikeout Rate (K%) Walk Rate (BB%) Home Run Rate (HR%) Plus Stats, such as OPS+, wRC+, FIP+, ERA+, xFIP If you've ever wondered What Is wOBA? What is OPS? What is wRC+? This is the video for you. This is also a video for people who want to know about more classic stats. Maybe you wonder What is Batting Average? What is ERA in Baseball? The full series will be as follows: #1: Counting Stats & History #2: Rate Stats and "+" Stats (you are here) #3: Defensive Stats (non-Statcast) #4: Statcast #5: WAR & Related Stats (and corrections / omissions) I hope you'll stick around for the next video in the series.
