"Real math" has the Braves and Philly in Tier 3.

You are calling "mommy" because you are resentful/salty that no matter what metrics are used, Cleveland ends up in Tier 1 at this point in the season. Also, if you are going to pick a year in your screen name, suggest using a Tier 1 or 2 season.

This is an excellent response and I appreciate your use of different metrics. Both your Tier rating, and the "prospective Angelswin" Tier rating have Cleveland in Tier 1 which seems to upset some people. So even though different metrics are used, the results are somewhat supportive. Since the "prospective Angelswin" Baseball Tiers are meant to be crowd sourced, We will take your suggestions and have the interns try to incorporate them . We already added results in last 10 games as a metric due to a good suggestion. The goal of the Tiers is to evaluate each teams performance using a snap shot in time. Yes, the schedules are unbalanced, but we have metrics which attempt to address this, even if not to the extent you would desire. Your Tiers emphasize RPI which is perfectly fine. The driving metrics for this one are "series won", and performance in last 10 games.

Strad says the O's are Tier 1

Unfortunately he opted out of his extension. But he was on the right track at 16-14 after the first 30 and before the rash of injuries struck.

A true Tier 1 classification would show above average performance in multiple metrics, not just overall W/L record. But you are on the right track!! Who said old dogs can't learn new tricks??? Well done Blarg!! edit. **The mods scan my profile for posts daily in order to make sure every post gets a "trolling emoji".

Now the TG is in bed, I can post. He should have told Trout that BEFORE he went up to bat.

But..the damage is done. Nice inning halos!

Yup. As of today Cleveland has won 6 of 7 Series including taking 3 of 4 from the Red Sox last week.

It's presented content for discussion. Wanted to get a baseline (beta test) version out early for crowd sourcing help. This will be updated "officially" again after approx 60 games.

Understandable its alot of math. PM me for a tutorial.

That would be up to Chuckster.

Good Call. I added a metric/data point for +7/-7 wins in last 10. Seattle moved to Tier 3. Thanks for your input as performance in last 10 games should be a factor.

Just because you don't understand something doesn't diminish its merit.

Good input. I will review and share the thought process and get back to you. That 7-3 shows they are definitely trending up. You may be spot on.
