Dude, c'mon.
You're inventing a point and making a comparison of your own choosing, then arguing against it.
And I'll repeat it here in case you forgot:
Notice again that my quote doesn't contain the comparisons you claim then argue against.

Statistics will only do you any good if you know how to use them.
Making decisions on what players to acquire based on 'odds' that are calculated by comparing them to completely dissimilar players is a textbook way to misuse them.
People who do things like that are the same people who come back years later and swear that stats are worthless and they can't believe anyone would be dumb enough to listen to them.
