MLB Prediction Formula
nice work Marko and Degen keep it up..... I recommend using jeff sagarin's pitcher data as he takes it to another level.... take a look
Thanks Stake - I have seen a bunch of systems that incorporate Jeff Sagarin's pitcher data - i.e. If the pitcher is on the list - scratch the play.
So I am defintely going to take a look and potentially incorporate it.

On another note I was thinking the other day about maybe categorizing pitchers as knuckleballer, power thrower, 4 pitch, 5 pitch and so on and keeping track of how teams do against the different type of pitchers. But I wouldn't even know where to start there is just too much data for me...maybe you could automate it?

Great link Stake!
MLB RUN ESTIMATOR
This spreadsheet is based off of Marko123 – MLB Prediction Formula thread. As Marko mentions - this is a work in progress in its early stages and still work being done by Marko to fine tune.
Features:
· Today’s matchups are updated from baseballpress.com when you click the “Update Lineup” button
· Pitching and Team stats needed to complete the Run Estimation formula are updated when you click on the “Update Pitching Stats” and “Update team Stats” Button
· NOTE: From time to time a new pitcher (say one called up from AAA) or if a pitcher goes to a different team – an error will occur when updating the pitching stats. You will need to update the Pitcher List with the proper links from baseball reference and re-run the query.
You can download from the link below:

Well you wouldnt scratch the play if they are on the list. I like his numbers because they incorporate more stats into the ERA, and the rickey and mob give you a more accurate assessment of power. I'm not really using any systems to bet I use his numbers compared to normal ERA to see who is over valued and under valued. But I like what I'm seeing with this prediction model.

Interesting Stake - i will have to look at Rickey and MOB in more detail.....thanks
As far as catagorizing pitchers - pretty much anything can be automated - but I'm not sure I see the value in catagorizing the pitchers since a knuckleball pitcher like RA Dickey for example may not perform the same against a specific team as say another knucleball pitcher. I see where you're going though - see if a specific team hits a specific pitcher type better or worse. But there is no way to know if that team doesn't hit that pitcher type well - OR that specific PITCHER well. I think you would be better off looking at past track record of team vs. that pitcher and if no data is available - lay off that game.
