	Sabermetrics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sabermetrics is the analysis of baseball through objective evidence, especially baseball statistics.
		Sabermetrics is concerned both with determining the value of a player in a season gone by, and with trying to predict the value of a player in the future based on his past performances.
		Bill James is widely considered the father of sabermetrics due to his extensive series of books, although a number of less well known SABR researchers in the early 1970s provided a foundation for his work.

		Typical sabermetric reasoning would say that runs win ballgames, and so a good measure of a player's worth is his/her ability to help his/her team score more runs than the opposing team.
		Bill James is widely considered the father of Sabermetrics.
		He began publishing his Baseball Abstracts in 1977 to study some questions about baseball he found interesting, and they soon became popular with a generation of thinking baseball fans.
