Player Value Posts
To avoid spamming the general blog page with the Player Value posts for each season/team, this blog page will serve as a separate listing of all of the Player Value posts for each season/team. These posts will be less detailed, mainly just listing out the top players each season and including the necessary files.
In this post I will list out the All-Time Orioles franchise lineup, according to Player Value. I will follow along the same format as MLB uses with its new "All-MLB" teams, which you can view here. That format is 1 player for each defensive position, 5 starters, and 2 relievers. I will only use DHs for AL teams, since most NL teams don't have enough seasons with the DH to really have a deserving player. Note that this post includes all years of the Orioles franchise from 1912-2021, meaning as the St. Louis Browns from 1912-1953 and as the Baltimore Orioles from 1954-2021. You can view the all-time St. Louis Browns team here. You can view the all-time Baltimore Orioles team here. Importantly, and as the graphic above suggests, these are based on individual seasons according to Player Value. The question we want to ask here is which version of a player would we want on our team? I want to give guys that only played a few seasons with a team an equal chance at making the lineup as the guys that spent their entire careers with one team. All-Time Team Total Player Value: 813.7856 (8th in AL, 15th in MLB)
All-Time Team Pitching Value: 164.9038 (15th in AL, 29th in MLB) All-Time Team Fielding Value: 229.4515 (3rd in AL, 5th in MLB) All-Time Team Baserunning Value: 0.7752 (8th in AL, 22nd in MLB) The All-Time Orioles franchise team is pretty average compared to the other all-time teams. Their strongest area is their fielding, led by Del Pratt's 50 Fielding Value and Harlond Clift's 41 Fielding Value. Clift's 10 Rfield in 1937 was the most of his career, and his 4.03 range factor far exceeded the positional average of 3.22. Pratt's range factor of 5.80 in 1916 also exceeded his positional average of 5.05. In relation to their great fielding, the Orioles best positional unit is also their infield. Pratt led the league with 103 RBI in 1916, while Ripken Jr won the AL MVP as a SS in 1991. Here is how the players on the all-time team compare in terms of their Player Value components: The team is led by Sisler, Ripken, and Clift, with 95, 94, and 87 Player Value seasons, respectively. Ripken had a stellar 11.5 WAR in his 1991 season, while Sisler had 9.8 WAR in 1920 and Clift had 7.1 WAR in 1937.

And that's it! I'm trying to make these posts shorter and just focus on sharing the all-time teams themselves and necessary data files. If you want to investigate an individual season for a player on the all-time team, I encourage you to check out their page on Baseball Reference.
