Just a short update on Jeremy Greenhouse's Personal Park Effects.

This time he looks at how teams do at home vs. how they do on the road.

Jeremy Greenhouse presents WAR value as non-linear. This has been argued here before, but Greenhouse puts out data suggesting getting X number of wins out of one position is increasingly more valuable the fewer number of positions it's spread over. He argues that the idea of even distribution of talent is true only if you consider the Major Leagues, and not the entire baseball universe. Admittedly, this is somewhat over my head, so I'm posting it to try and pull in some open discussion. It does, in my head, make sense that I would rather pay Albert Pujols more than Joey Votto and Brandon Phillips (age not considered), and it seems like this agrees with me, but I may just be totally out of it after a long, tiring day. Thoughts? He also, in the same post, presents data saying that for every MPH harder a pitcher throws, he stands to make an extra 165,000 dollars on the market, even if production remains the same. Similarly, every 10 feet of hit distance is another 250,000 for hitters.
