m.e.t.b.o.t. is in a quandary. for the july 28 game, no metropolitan generated a positive WPA as shown by fangraphs.com. in the game in question, there were, of course, two net-positive performances - those of metropolitan relief pitchers bobby parnell and josh edgin. each pitched a full inning without allowing a run. this of course resulted in some infinitesimally small increase in the probability of the metropolitans winning the game, but that increase is less than the degree of accuracy to which fangraphs can present the data. so its possible that each player generated something less than +0.0005 WPA but greater than exactly and mathematically zero. m.e.t.b.o.t. will therefore be presenting the data as if each of these players generated 0.00025 WPA, good for 0.01 schaefers each. this will effectively act as a zero vote for all players, while still mathematically counting as a vote by m.e.t.b.o.t.
