If you go to the Dallas tourney site and press teams and go to the list, you can press the i next to the team name. It is a statistical analysis of the team's performance in asa games based upon MVP Power Rankings 100. The old adage that STATs can lie is proved by these stats.
I take the Aces Express Jacoby team that went 5-2 and played into Sunday (17th I think). This MVP Stats nonsense says:
Their current trending average is .429
The tournament opponents trending average is .943
The prediction model shows them at .166.
They can potentially average 1.8 runs/game and give up 4.0 runs/game.
They could go 2 - 8 in their next 10 games.
I would bet on this team not the STATs. There are many other funny example. Both Aces Express teams have great pitching.
