    I don't see that anywhere, but if you go to the team page and then batting splits, it will show the team OPS+ in various situations. That number basically compares how that team does in those situations compared to league average and can give you an idea. For example, the Sox have an OPS+ of 127 with 2 outs and RISP, so they are 27% better than league average in that situation.

    The only drawback is you'll have to go from team to team to do it, it's not all on one page.

    Holy shit. I was ignoring your return until now, but could you please STFU.

    Do NOT make this thread another one about you. I'm actually hoping that at some point a mod will find it worthy of sticky-ing because of its usefulness to everyone in the forum. If you start your regular bullshit that's sure to never happen.

    I didn't bring my name up so don't start your BS. It's pretty simple to find stats on the internet, do a simple search. I doubt this is really helping anyone. What baseball fan hasn't heard of baseball reference before?

    I would be very flattered (or flat-treed), if being willfully obtuse were a desirable quality.

    Had I heard of it before I wouldn't have asked would I?

    Some baseball fans don't need to spend all day on a stats site consuming math like it's going out of style.

    Personally, I love the game. I don't need stats to do that.
