Easy enough:\n\nERA= (ER/IP)*9\n\nER = Earned Runs\nIP = Innings Pitched\nERA = average number of runs allowed per nine innings

There's a very similar statistic to the one you created, called SECA, or Secondary Average. It measures your total bases gained independent of batting average, and the only major difference in the formula from yours is that it uses AB instead of PA. Here's the formula for it: \n\n(TB - H + BB + SB - CS) / AB\n\nThis is in comparison to yours which is this:\n\n(TB + BB + HBP + SB) / PA\n\nThe purpose of these stats is a little different (Yours is supposed to be an end-all stat, while SECA is a way to look at a player's production as well as their ability to get on base, similar to OPS.) The AB/PA difference is fairly large as well, but this just shows that you're not the only one thinking this way, and we could see another transition away from OPS sometime in the future.

With the exception of wins and losses, earned run average (ERA) is the most important baseball statistic for pitchers. ERA says how many earned runs a pitcher gives up per nine innings pitched.\n \nSteps:\n1.  Add up the total innings pitched. For every out that is recorded while you are pitching, you get one-third of an inning.\n \n2.  Add up the total number of earned runs given up. If there are no errors in the inning, all the runs are earned runs. If there are errors, reconstruct the inning without the errors to see how many runs would have scored if the fielding had been perfect.\n \n3.  Multiply the earned runs by 9.\n \n4.  Divide by the total innings pitched.\n \n5.  Round the number to the second decimal place. For example, 3.2051 is 3.21.\n \n \nTips:\nWhen calculating earned runs, always give the benefit of the doubt to the pitcher.\n \nIf an error occurs with two outs, all runs scored after that error are unearned runs.\n \nAny runner who scores is the responsibility of the pitcher who let him or her get on base, even if that pitcher has left the game when the runner scores.\n \nIf you leave the game while a batter is still at bat and the pitching count is in the batter's favor (that is, there are more balls than strikes in the count), then the batter is your responsibility.

Depending on the side of the ball you come from... Based on the way things are going?  Payroll  Because you can buy a great team and build a winning tradition.  The team may not win the World Series every year but they will always be in contention.\n\nIf you want real stats from a analitical point on players:\n\nTraditionally, statistics like batting average for batters (the number of hits divided by the number of at bats) and earned run average (approximately the number of runs given up by a pitcher per nine innings) have governed the statistical world of baseball. However, the advent of sabermetrics brought an onslaught of new statistics that better gauge a player's performance and contributions to his team from year to year.\n\nSome sabermetric statistics have entered the mainstream baseball world. Among statistics that do an excellent job of measuring a batter's performance, On-base plus slugging (OPS) is the easiest to calculate. It adds the hitter's on base percentage ([hits + walks + number of times hit by pitches] divided by [number of times at bat + walks + number of times hit by a pitch + number of sacrifice flies]) to his or her slugging percentage (total bases divided by at bats). Some argue that the OPS formula is flawed and that more weight should be shifted towards OBP (on base percentage). Regardless, OPS still stands as the most direct means of evaluating a hitter's performance using readily available statistics.
