A Simple WAR Framework

Tom Tango discusses creating WAR for any sport, and makes an important point about measuring the player against the average player to create a won-lost record, or indis.

If there is one thing I did wrong when I rolled out WAR on my blog some 12 years ago was that I did not pause at The Indis level, and went straight to WAR. That’s because that’s what I needed at the time. Had I known WAR would take off the way it did, then I would have ensured that intermediate step would be more forceful. And it would reflect the replacement step is just a secondary optional step.

So it should be straight-forward to take Bill James win shares to WAR.
