Players Ranked by Their Average Rank in Total Win Shares and Win Shares per Plate Appearance

Click here to see my sabermetric blog called Cybermetrics

I have another site where all players are ranked by their Win Shares per Plate Appearance. Win Shares (WS) is a stat created by Bill James to taken into account all phases of baseball. WS can never be negative. Here I look at all players who had at least 5000 plate appearances (PA) and/or 141 WS through 2001. There were 861 such players.

One problem with ranking players by WS per PA is that a player with a short career can have a high WS per PA and rank higher than other players simply because he did not play long enough to see the decline phase in his career when his WS per PA would have fallen. Conversely, a player with a high WS total may have just played a long time while never being a very good player.

So here I combine the two ranks. For example, if a player was 20^th in WS per PA and 40^th in total WS, his rank would be 30. So I basically took the average of the two ranks. Once that was done, all players were re-ranked. Now Ruth had the best “average rank” at 2, with his WS per PA rank being 1 and his total WS rank being 3. No other player had a higher rank. So I simply changed Ruth’s “average rank” to 1. Cobb was next with a total WS rank of 1 and a WS per PA rank of 5. That “average rank” was 3. So this was changed to a 2, and so on (I only included Ruth’s WS from hitting and fielding, not pitching). Also, players who played under the 162 game schedule had their total WS reduced by 5%. The appropriately weighted reduction was used on players who played under both a 154 game schedule and the 162 game schedule.

The players are grouped below by position and then ranked by what their “average rank” was among all 861 players. Gehrig, for example, had the best rank among first basemen. Foxx was second. “Total Rank” says what a player’s rank was in total WS among all 861 players. “Per WS Rank” says what a player’s rank was in WS per PA among all 861 players. A player was listed at the position he played more games than any other.

Now if the WS per PA should be more important, I also calculated an “average rank” with rank in WS per PA getting a weight of .75 and rank in total WS getting a weight of .25. Where a player ranked here among all players is in the second column from the right. The last column reverses this, with rank in WS per PA getting a weight of .25 and rank in total WS getting a weight of .75, in case total WS is more important than WS per PA.

The Lee Sinins sabermetric encyclopedia was very helpful in putting this together.
