BK's big problem is that he thinks RBI's are an antiquated way of looking at things. To have a lot of RBI's requires for the batter to have a lot of men getting on base in front of him so that is not really in the batters control as much as say a walk is.
So, Joe Carter having numerous 100 RBI seasons doesn't mean much to BK because he had a lot of guys getting on base in front of him but didn't do much else as a ball player (as far as the advanced stats say).
