Composite Rankings for Progressive Themes Topic

Since we all clearly have too much time on our hands, has anyone ever seen a public posting of player comparisons for progressive/regressive players? When entering a draft it is easy to iso the rookies and determine who looks strong, but comparing one year to the next, etc.

Just curious, and if you had time to read this then you certainly have time to get on this assignment immediately!

I'd be interested in something like that. However, I think the environment makes a huge difference. I've been in a progressive that began in 1905/1955 - thru 1972 Hank Aaron has 382 home runs. In another progressive that began in 1920/1968, Aaron has 497 home runs thru 1974.

The biggest difference in environment was one took place when half the league was dead balling, the other half didn't. Even though Aaron has had three additional season to accumulate stats in the 05/55 league, he has nearly 100 fewer home runs in it.

If, on the other had, that league had started in 1920/1955, I wouldn't be surprised if he had well over 800 homers by now.

I'd love to figure win shares or WAR but i'm not sure the fielding stats are good enough to make it work
