Decade Adjusted OPS Rankings by Position
Minimum 2,500 plate appearances. Players are eligible at a position only for seasons in which they primarily played that position. AOPS is on-base percentage plus slugging average adjusted for league OBP and slugging average and batters’ park factor. BR is batting runs, an estimate of the number of runs contributed beyond the league average adjusted for batters’ park factor. See tools for a detailed explanation. Iso is isolated power. Sec is secondary average. See the glossary for a detailed explanation. An asterisk denotes a left-handed batter. A pound sign denotes a switch-hitter.
