After reading an article on a baseball blog, I was prompted to write this book. Why You Can’t Clone Koufax is a book that utilizes the traditional statistical categories in analyzing and evaluating a player’s career. While there are some sabermetric categories that are relevant and useful, we believe that the traditional statistical categories and methods are sufficient to objectively measure how a player performed. In utilizing the traditional statistical categories, however, we emphasize stats that are often overlooked or unknown. In our view, many of the traditional statistical categories appear to be relegated to a lesser status by sabermetricians. In any event, our emphasis is on the comparing of pitchers--not on the everyday position player. In support of our contention, we’ve conducted a comprehensive five-year statistical analysis of Sandy Koufax’s record. We have also conducted numerous comparisons between Koufax and some of baseball’s greatest pitchers. Note: this book includes the statistics of all current pitchers for the 2014 season.
