Quote:whoever puts up the best numbers regardless of team.
A person's number of rbi's and runs scored is a reflection of the team. OBP, Avg, SBs, walks, and Slg are things a batter has some control over. But he can't do anything if the guys around him can't draw walks, can't get singles or get on base. If you had a person who had outstanding average, let's say .400, could totally dominate the ball, gets on base, steals bases, but no one can knock him in or advance the runner, what's that player's value? Is he more valuable than someone who has over 100 rbis, and produces over 100 runs?
