MLB stats: Which ones are relevant to handicapping?

[ChiefZilla]

Overall, awesome article BetATL. Well done.

And mount, I've wondered the same thing about guys like Votto. I don't watch many Reds games, but given his decently high K numbers (125+ the last two seasons), he seems like the type of hitter who waits for his pitch, even if it means sometimes you strike out. And when you wait for your pitch, you'll drive the ball more. And when you drive the ball more, I assume you'll have a higher BABIP than guys who aren't as patient.

So if Votto is an exception, aren't there others?
