These people that think advanced stats don't matters are the same guys that think a "wins a win no matter what". If you people would actually pay attention to the stats, you would realize the team was gonna fall off a cliff as soon as Hank stopped carrying the team on his back. People were screaming that it would happen right when the season was kicking off, but you know a win is a win. Get with it, saying advanced stats don't have any place in the game is just plain foolish at this point.
