Batting average is hits divided by at-bats; percentages show the same rate. ERA measures earned runs allowed per nine innings; lower is better. These best/worst labels use batting average and ERA, rather than an overall team-strength model. Player batting-average leaders use MLB’s qualified hitter pool. Ties use the published precision. Postseason and spring-training statistics are excluded.

How these MVPs are selected

Jay’s statistical picks, separate from official awards. Metrics are standardized against eligible players: hitter OPS 60%, home runs per team game 25%, RBI per team game 15%; pitcher ERA 35%, WHIP 25%, strikeouts per team game 25%, innings per team game 15%. Hitters need 3.1 plate appearances per team game; pitchers need one inning per team game. Both need two appearances. The pitcher workload threshold favors starting pitchers. Season totals combine traded players’ clubs; their workload benchmark uses the league’s average team games.
