A look at this years corp of Rookies
As a card carrying
sabermetric proponent, I decided to rank this crop of rookies in OPS and WHIP.
With that said, more goes into naming a rookie of the year than OPS or WHIP.
However, it’s a good place to start. It is McCabe Magazines opinion that you
cannot do so without taking a hard look at the sabermetric stats.
