Description
A landmark work of sabermetrics, this book introduces Win Shares, a comprehensive statistic designed to measure a player’s total contribution to team victories across positions and eras. It explains the reasoning and formulas behind the system, illustrating its application through detailed studies of teams from 1890, 1932, and 1998. The book then turns to engaging essays on awards, defense, trades, team aging, career projections, and other enduring baseball questions. Both analytical and ambitious, it offers readers a new framework for understanding how individual performance shapes the game’s ultimate outcome: winning.
