  • Hot Stove Economics: Understanding Baseball’S Second Season by J.C
    Hot Stove Economics: Understanding Baseball’s Second Season by J.C. Bradbury Interview Questions: Why did you write a book about valuing baseball players? The action from Spring Training through the World Series isn’t enough to satiate my interest in the game. Like many baseball fans, when the action on the field stops, my mind turns to analyzing how all the wheeling and dealing will improve or harm the teams involved. Being an economist, I was naturally curious as to how the things players do translate into real dollars. It’s easy to generalize about whether a trade or signing is good or bad, but I wanted some hard numbers to back up the analysis. I was familiar with the rich economics literature on the subject, so I decided to update and apply it. Briefly explain your method for valuing baseball players. First, I quantified how winning affects revenue. Second, I determined how important the things that players do on the field contribute to winning—this includes contributions on offense and defense. Once had both, I could value players according to how their individual accomplishments translated into revenue through their contributions to winning. This general approach was developed by economist Gerald Scully in the 1970s. In the climate of a recession, how can baseball players possibly be worth the salaries they’re getting on the free agent market? Major League Baseball is big business, taking in about $6 billion dollars a year. Even in the current recession, baseball revenues have continued to grow; only the rate of growth has slowed.

Several were injured, and others have been getting needed development time in Triple-A. That's finally starting to change. With his "Super Two" status no longer a concern, pitching prospect Cody Reed was called up Saturday. Infielder Jose Peraza is back in the big leagues for the second time. Starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani has put an oblique injury behind him. Pitchers Michael Lorenzen and Raisel Iglesias could be ready in the near future. "It's exciting because this is what we've all talked about," Price said. "We've anticipated it would happen a little bit sooner. We didn't anticipate the health issues, and didn't think we'd come out of Spring Training with all the issues and injuries. I did anticipate we'd get to the point where these young guys would impact our ballclub, and begin to learn how to play at this level and find their way to success." More help could be coming. Pitcher Robert Stephenson, who already made two spot starts in the big leagues, is performing well at Triple-A Louisville with a 3.29 ERA in 11 starts.

  • Weekly Notes 072817
    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).
