  • Estimated Age Effects in Baseball
    ESTIMATED AGE EFFECTS IN BASEBALL By Ray C. Fair October 2005 Revised March 2007 COWLES FOUNDATION DISCUSSION PAPER NO. 1536 COWLES FOUNDATION FOR RESEARCH IN ECONOMICS YALE UNIVERSITY Box 208281 New Haven, Connecticut 06520-8281 http://cowles.econ.yale.edu/ Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair¤ Revised March 2007 Abstract Age effects in baseball are estimated in this paper using a nonlinear xed- effects regression. The sample consists of all players who have played 10 or more full-time years in the major leagues between 1921 and 2004. Quadratic improvement is assumed up to a peak-performance age, which is estimated, and then quadratic decline after that, where the two quadratics need not be the same. Each player has his own constant term. The results show that aging effects are larger for pitchers than for batters and larger for baseball than for track and eld, running, and swimming events and for chess. There is some evidence that decline rates in baseball have decreased slightly in the more recent period, but they are still generally larger than those for the other events. There are 18 batters out of the sample of 441 whose performances in the second half of their careers noticeably exceed what the model predicts they should have been. All but 3 of these players played from 1990 on. The estimates from the xed-effects regressions can also be used to rank players. This ranking differs from the ranking using lifetime averages because it adjusts for the different ages at which players played. It is in effect an age-adjusted ranking.

Last season, leftfielder Yoenis Cespedes won the award as a Tiger — but he played the final two months of the season with the Mets. This season, four Tigers are finalists for the AL Gold Glove, as announced by Rawlings on Thursday: second baseman Ian Kinsler, shortstop Jose Iglesias, catcher James McCann and pitcher Justin Verlander. All but Kinsler — who despite outstanding defense the past three seasons has yet to win baseball’s top defensive honor — are first-time finalists. In 2015, Kinsler lost out to Houston’s Jose Altuve. In 2014, he fell to Boston’s Dustin Pedroia. Kinsler is a finalist with Pedroia — who is seeking his fifth Gold Glove — and Seattle’s Robinson Cano. Kinsler and Pedroia finished tied for the AL lead in Defensive Runs Saved by a second baseman this season with 12 each. Kinsler had a .988 fielding percentage, tying a career high set in 2014. Iglesias, considered one of the best fielding shortstops in the AL, is competing with Cleveland’s Francisco Lindor and the Angels’ Andrelton Simmons.
