Out of Baseball

[ Return To Top ]

'Out of Baseball' is the tag assigned to a player's five-year forecast when his Drop Rate in that season exceeds 66.7%. That is, we do not list a player's forecast line when it is substantially more likely than not that he will not be playing professional baseball.

Even if a player receives the dreaded 'Out of Baseball' tag, he can still accumulate residual WARP and VORP value based on those comparables that do remain in the league, as accounted for in his Valuation metrics.
