Updated Win Shares

Win Shares are now current through yesterday's games. The best player over the last five weeks has been Manny Ramirez, who accumulated five WSAB in that time. Manny has been spectacular for the Dodgers, creating 44 runs in 152 plate appearances. Other hot players have been Roy Oswalt, Curtis Granderson, Dustin Pedroia and Hunter Pence (four WSAB each).

Updated Win Shares

Win Shares are updated through yesterday's games (August 6). In the American League, Justin Morneau is now tied with Ian Kinsler for the American League lead in WSAB. In the National, the leaders are Berkman and Pujols, followed by four pitchers: Lincecum, Zambrano, Webb and Haren.

Over the past two weeks, Torii Hunter racked up the most WSAB (five), followed by Jason Michaels, Matt Cain and Garret Anderson (four each). Manny Ramirez already has three WSAB for his new team. Jason Bay has two for his.

Win Shares through July 23

I updated our Win Shares stats through yesterday's games. Over the past two weeks, six players racked up three Win Shares: Melvin Mora, Carlos Delgado, Troy Glaus, Adam Dunn, Jhonny Peralta, Jim Thome and Ryan Braun. Looks like some sluggers are starting to heat up.

Win Shares Updated

Our Win Shares are now updated through yesterday's games (July 10). Ian Kinsler now leads the majors with 24 Win Shares and is tied with Lance Berkman for the major league lead in WSAB at 16.

In fact, Kinsler has been the majors' best players over the last 16 days (or, since I last updated Win Shares) with six WSAB. The following players recorded five WSAB in that same time: J.J. Hardy, Evan Longoria, Hanley Ramirez and Cody Ross. The worst player has been Cleveland's Jason Michaels, -4 WSAB.
