wOBA

Any chance of adding weighted OBA to player stats?
When we add an RBOE statistic, it will be possible to calculate wOBA from the data we supply. We intend to add RBOE in a future release.
As we have stated before, we are trying to provide as much raw data as possible so people can do any derived statistics they would like, but providing too many derived statistics will confuse the average user, so we have been trying to avoid doing that. RBOE is a raw statistic that we will add soon.
Looking further down the road, we would like to add the ability for users to decide which stats they want to see from a larger pool of stats so that basic users can still get the basic stats without confusion, and advanced users will have a larger pool of stats to choose from.
