every tRA stat will include a new widget that shows exactly how that tRA was calculated.

very very very neat. The blog over there is getting pretty interesting and the website in general has gone over a very interesting and dynamic growth during the last half of the season.

also in the blog, tRA+ is asessed per rotation slot. Looks like Cain was a #1 starter the first two years until this year when he was a #2. AT BEST.

Interesting Discussion But Why No Link To The Actual Numbers?

Where does one find for example what Cain’s tRA and tRA+ was for 2006, 2007, and 2008? And more specificly then that all the other pitchers.

So, tRA … should we just forget about FIP now and use tRA instead? Any reason not to?

I can't think of any reason not to...

tRA is more complete than FIP, I like it better. It’s a great idea, instead of just looking at K, BB, and HR numbers, it expands to more BIP types. LD’s, GB’s, etc.

Yeah, i can’t really see a reason for using FIP over tRA now, They’re basically saying the same thing, with tRA being more complete & avoiding some of the problems with FIP.
