Sabermetrics

Sabermetrics is the specialized analysis of baseball statistics that goes beyond traditional metrics to measure a player's performance and contributions more comprehensively. It involves using advanced data to evaluate aspects like hitting, pitching, and fielding, helping teams make informed decisions about player acquisitions, strategies, and game management. By analyzing various statistics, such as on-base percentage and Wins Above Replacement (WAR), sabermetrics provides deeper insights into player efficiency and overall team performance, revolutionizing how baseball teams assess talent and compete in the game.
