About This Web Site

□ I wanted to break down baseball history by decade and by team to make it more digestable - the focal point of this site are the team pages for each decade
□ I was interested in determining who the team builders and team wreckers were - upper management - owners, GM's and, back in the early days, managers
□ I wanted to evaluate players on an even playing field across the decades and the tool for that is Win Shares
□ Instead of using WAR, which calculates Win shares bottom up, I used WISDOM (Win Shares Data Outcomes for Management)
 WISDOM calculates Win Shares bottom up by dividing the normalized number of wins a team got during the season amongst the players
WAR calculates wins shares bottom up by extrapolating individual player statistics into wins.
