RD does not effect the number of wins acccording to the estimate. 10 more RD it increases the number of wins by 1. The equation for Wins is W = 81 + 0.10 (RD).
In Class Activity 7
NumberofWins = 80.88 + 0.106*(763-614)
NumberofWins
[1] 96.674
A team with runs difference of 149 is expected to win around 97 games.
RunsReg = lm(RS ~ OBP + SLG + BA, data=moneyball)
summary(RunsReg)
**There is a problem with the model because BA and OBP are highly correlated and accordinf to the model the BA negatively impacte the OBP*
cor(moneyball$BA,moneyball$OBP)
This is a very high correlation which proves our point above that there is something wrong with the model
