Yesterday, I laid out a brand new technique of quantifying depth that we’re trying into right here at FanGraphs. It’s primarily based on the concept whereas our depth charts are a degree estimate of how a lot every participant will play, the real-life method issues work is totally different. To imitate actuality extra intently, we’re experimenting with eradicating gamers from the depth charts algorithmically and rebuilding groups on the fly to see how they appear with out their greatest gamers. Yesterday’s article covers our methodology in nice element.

There’s one factor that I needed so as to add to that article however couldn’t discover the house for: extra tables. There was one large large desk in there that confirmed every workforce’s profitable share as we eliminated increasingly gamers from their squad. However that’s simply not a good way to take a look at something – 300 numbers in an enormous desk is extra info than our brains can simply course of. I don’t have plenty of new info in the present day, however I assumed I’d slice that information up into extra bite-sized chunks so you may take a look at it with out your eyes glazing over. One fast word: All of the tables on this article are sortable, so you may get them organized by whichever class you so need.

First, right here’s how a lot every workforce in baseball would lose in profitable share in a vacuum in the event that they performed your entire season with out their greatest participant, together with their profitable percentages in each the earlier than and after instances:
