metrics

His limited range in right field has led to a flurry of dropped balls and some of the poorest defensive metrics of any big leaguer at the position.

Club sources say that in key metrics, such as claimed crosses, shot stopping, preventing goals from rebounds and mistakes, or rather the lack of them, Lammens rates exceptionally highly.

Last year, the Vera Institute released a report about the quality, equity and scale of prison education, assessing each state’s progress across 15 metrics.

While Betts would almost certainly remain a trustworthy option in right field, his defensive metrics at that position the last couple of years have grown pedestrian compared to his once-generational standards.

It was a simple message born out of a desire to shine a light on how metrics for success within the industry can leave actors with a warped sense of their own value.
