Understanding Key Stats
Calculation
ERA = (Earned Runs ÷ Innings Pitched) × 9
ERA measures a pitcher's effectiveness by calculating how many earned runs they allow per nine innings pitched.
Historical Context
ERA became official in 1912. The "Dead Ball Era" (1900-1919) saw ERAs below 2.50, while modern MLB averages 3.80-4.50. Ed Walsh holds the career record at 1.82 ERA.

Calculation
OPS = On-Base % + Slugging %
- OBP = (Hits + Walks + HBP) ÷ (AB + Walks + HBP + SF)
- SLG = Total Bases ÷ At Bats
Historical Context
Emerged in the 1970s, popularized in "The Hidden Game of Baseball" (1984). Babe Ruth holds the career record at 1.164.

Measures distance from division leader.
Greatest Comeback

Historical Context
Emerged in 1970s-80s sabermetrics. Revolutionized player evaluation by providing all-encompassing single number.
Notable Seasons
Babe Ruth (1923): 14.1 fWAR—still the highest single-season position player fWAR ever recorded. Pedro Martínez (2000): 11.7 fWAR as a pitcher, one of the most dominant pitching seasons in modern history.

What It Measures
View LeaderboardOffensive value adjusted for park and league. 100 = league average.
Why It Matters
Accounts for ballpark effects. A .280 hitter in SF's Oracle Park may be more valuable than .300 at Coors Field.
Elite Performers
Barry Bonds (2002): 244 wRC+—adjusted for his historic park and era, the greatest offensive season ever. Recent: Aaron Judge's 2022 AL MVP season posted 207 wRC+.
