Summary of Ranger Hitters By Fielding Position
Here’s a summary of the information presented throughout the last month. I use a two-year park factor and apply two-thirds of the weight to the most recent season. The Ballpark hasn’t been as crazily hitter-friendly during 2005-2006 as it prior years. The factors are:
Average: 1.005
On-Base %: 1.005
Slugging: 1.020
The Ballpark has a Runs factor of 1.037.
That “P” in front of OPS+ and other stats means “position;” it calculates how Rangers perform relative to other players in the league at a particular fielding position. Also, keep in mind that if you divide the team’s OPS by the league-average OPS, you will not derive OPS+. OPS+ is calculated by adding OBP+ and SLG+, then subtracting 100 (which is why, as you’ve probably noticed, some really terrible hitters have a negative OPS+).
Positions ordered by OPS+.
