“Personally, I would rather know a player?s unadjusted TPR and the average TPR at each position.  I can then do a positional adjustment or not - at my own discretion.”

By the same line of thinking, wouldn’t SUPER-LWTS be more flexible if you set the formula to runs rather than runs above average? For those of us who prefer using some type of replacement level as the baseline, this design choice makes the formula more flexible and useful.

Like the positional adjustment, people could then make adjustments at their own discretion.

Jim, valid point, although, unlike positional adjustments, anyone can make the “runs above/below average to runs” adjustment, without any additional information.

The rest of the article (detailed explanation of the SUPER-LWTS components and the player lists) will be forthcoming (next week?)...

I’m pretty sure that Mickey will be giving us his ranking based on /500 PA or something.  Therefore, it should be a trivial matter to convert that against a “replacement level” baseline, of whatever you choose.
