| I would consider OPS "sabermetric" but I can't say the same about OBP. OBP had been recognized as a valuable stat long before the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR, the acronym from which sabermetric is derived) was formed in 1971 so I would take that out. However, OPS was made popular by one of SABR's most popular members in 1984, so it should stay. |
