This is our first attempt at a Brooks Robinson – George Kell SABR chapter newsletter. Thanks to Fred Worth for setting this up. The next issue will come out sometime this summer before our August 19 meeting in Memphis. If anyone wishes to contribute anything to it, please feel free to do so. I’d like to take this opportunity to encourage you to join us in Hot Springs from March 23-26 for Boiling Out III. Two years ago at this meeting, the idea was hatched for the Robinson- Kell chapter. It is a fabulous opportunity to learn about Deadball baseball and the history of spring training in Arkansas from some of SABR’s most knowledgeable researchers. My favorite part of the 2004 meeting was simply meeting and talking baseball with people of various interests and ages from different parts of the country. So even if you can’t make the entire weekend, consider driving down on Saturday, March 25. Just two weeks until pitchers and catchers report! Come on, spring! - - Madison McEntire Upcoming Events March 23-26, 2006 Boiling Out 2006 at the Arlington Hotel Hot Springs, AR The Deadball Era Committee and the Robinson - Kell Chapter present Boiling Out 2006, a celebration of Deadball-Era-style spring training.

  • Estimated Age Effects in Baseball
    Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports Volume 4, Issue 1 2008 Article 1 Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair, Yale University Recommended Citation: Fair, Ray C. (2008) "Estimated Age Effects in Baseball," Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports: Vol. 4: Iss. 1, Article 1. DOI: 10.2202/1559-0410.1074 ©2008 American Statistical Association. All rights reserved. Brought to you by | Yale University Library New Haven (Yale University Library New Haven) Authenticated | 172.16.1.226 Download Date | 3/28/12 11:34 PM Estimated Age Effects in Baseball Ray C. Fair Abstract Age effects in baseball are estimated in this paper using a nonlinear fixed-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 field, 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.
