I could understand if they prorated seasons to 162 games without taking into account changes in pitcher usage patterns. But how does the W% go from 0.545 to 0.823?
I think I'll ignore both conclusions, if you don't mind. :-)
For B-R.com, they're simply taking the pitchers Batters Faced and pro-rating them for season length, then using a ratio type method to calculate the frequency of each event per the new prorated playint time. For the Win%, I think that's a flaw in the methodolgy regarding runs/earned runs, and should just be ignored for any league/era where there were a lot of unearned runs.
For BP, they do a timelining level of competition exercise, then they adjust pitcher innings AND results for the change in fielding/pitching credit, then I think they also adjust for change in usage patterns on top of that.
And God 83-105, 5.02
Wasn't worth a damn.
