First basemen get -9 runs per full season, which I'm defining as 1440 innings.<BR/><BR/>As of today, Berkman has played 981.3 innings at first base. <BR/>981.3 / 1440 * -9 = -6.1 runs.<BR/><BR/>Pujols has played 915.7 innings.<BR/>915.7 / 1440 * -9 = 5.7 runs.<BR/><BR/>Numbers don't match up exactly because the data are 4 days old. But there's the math. :)<BR/>-jJustinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07697776280178146413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23241716.post-71106632118894865752008-08-16T19:02:24.056-04:002008-08-16T19:02:24.056-04:00Justin---<BR/><BR/>Why do you give Berkman a -6 pos.adj versus only -5.5 for Pujols?<BR/><BR/>Thanks.NickPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06344700014221969116noreply@blogger.com
