For batters, we calculate an achievement score based on a complex formula that takes into account batting, base running, and fielding statistics, plus personal awards (MVP, Triple Crown, Gold Glove, and All-Star). For pitchers, their achievement score is based on a different formula that takes into account their wins, losses, saves, personal awards (similar as for batters, plus the Cy Young and Rolaids Relief Man awards), and earned run average. Team achievement scores are based on the number of wins that season with bonuses for post-season achievements: 10, 20, 30, and 40 for winning a wildcard, division, pennant, and World Series respectively. A player or team's best year is defined as the season with his highest achievement score. The raw data come from the archive at seanlahman.com. This database is copyright 1996-2014 by Sean Lahman.
