Ron Shandler Questions

To the honorable Ron Shandler. (full bow)! I’m a big fan of your Baseball Forecaster and Baseball HQ. I think the LIMA strategy was awesome for it’s time. Your insights lead the industry. However like all, I do have questions. The Protfolio3 plan is based on

your reliability scores. This has been a bone of contention even on your web site chat.

I saw that you addressed this in an article. You stated that the reliability scores were backward looking only. So without any projection in reliability wouldn’t that make them useless? You brought up A-Rod who would not qualify for a Tier 1 group based on his unreliability (Score 52). But you rate Aramis Ramirez has a Tier 1 reliability (Score 89.

I think most of us know that A. Ramires finished with around 500 at bats due to injury 2 of the last three years. Based on that alone I’d think the Portfolio 3 plan is flawed. As always looking forward to your comments.

Ron's chat will be tomorrow. I'll create a new thread tomorrow. Please post any questions for him in that one. That'll cut down on any potential confusion. Thanks.
