Comments on: Villar and Baserunning Havoc http://milwaukee.locals.baseballprospectus.com/2017/01/21/jonathan-villar/ Just another Baseball Prospectus Local Sites site Tue, 13 Nov 2018 16:53:42 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=4.1.1 By: nathandesutter http://milwaukee.locals.baseballprospectus.com/2017/01/21/jonathan-villar/#comment-12180 Thu, 26 Jan 2017 00:28:19 +0000 http://milwaukee.locals.baseballprospectus.com/?p=7712#comment-12180 You’re right about that. Sometimes guys get more than one chance, and a large amount of the time they get none at all. Instead, I switched it to total OPPS, the summation of GAR, SBR, HAR, AAR, OAR opps. Here’s what I got.
Player OOB/OPPS OOB%
Villar 22/252 8.7%
Hamilton 7/180 3.8%
Marte 8/188 4.2%
Nunez 5/118 4.2%
Davis 5/168 2.9%
Segura 16/274 5.8%
Jankowski 12/159 7.5%
Perez 2/144 1.3%
Altuve 14/223 6.2%
Turner 4/131 3.0%
Trout 5/239 2.0%
Goldie 5/188 2.6%
Dyson 7/128 5.4%
Gordon 3/138 2.1%
Myers 13/174 7.4%
Herrera 15/223 6.7%
Andrus 12/183 6.5%
Harper 16/150 10.6%
Betts 4/227 1.7%
Hernandez 8/190 4.2%

CC plenty of times mentioned that he’s willing to let Villar make mistakes and hopefully learn so he makes less future mistakes.

The Brewers were horrible last year in those two areas.

I like the aggressiveness of Perez, Broxton and Villar but Villar needs to learn a bit more from Perez and then we will have something.

Thats a really weird outlier, I wonder why.

It seemed in the 2nd half Villar at least stopped trying to get to 3B with 0 or 2 outs. On the other end of the spectrum is the efficiency of H Perez. If you double his opportunities to 272 to match Betts, his Baserunning runs added doubles to 12, he leads this list [except for the incomparable B Hamilton]. Didn’t realize Goldschmidt was such a good baserunner. E Nunez attempting 50 steals in 51 attempts, then being caught only 4 times for a success rate of 76% is curious.
