- The site says its numbers exclude fielding skill and postseason play, a caveat that leaves room for plenty of ranking disputes.
Field notes
The methodology describes a wins-added measure, adjusted against the league in each player's season, with career value blended with the best seven seasons. The page says hitting, baserunning, position, and pitching count, and that short schedules receive credit toward a full season. It also flags two omissions—fielding skill and postseason play—so the displayed rankings are not presented as a measure of every part of a player's value.
