Bill James' Teammate Score

From BR Bullpen

(Redirected from Teammate Score)

“All of us are to one degree or another defined by the relationship we bear to others.” – Bill James.

The Teammate Score was developed to answer the question “Who were Player X’s main teammates?” As an example, consider the case of Ted Williams.

For each Boston Red Sox player, in each season, we multiply his Win Shares (WS) total by Williams’ total for that season. Then add them up over all the seasons that they played together. For instance, in 1951, Williams had 34 WS and Dom DiMaggio 21. So the Williams- DiMaggio duo scores (34 x 21= 714) for 1951. The next year, Williams had 1 WS and DiMaggio 16. For 1952, the duo scores only (1 x 16 =16). Totaling over all the years that Williams and DiMaggio played together gives 7,904.

Williams’ Main Teammate (MT) is Bobby Doerr (8,101) followed by DiMaggio (7,904) and Johnny Pesky (6,829). Fourth would be Mel Parnell (3,644).

Leaderboard

Since 1900, 21 pairs of teammates have scored at least 8,000:

12,676 Babe Ruth- Lou Gehrig, Yankees, 1923-34

12,028 Eddie Mathews- Hank Aaron, Braves, 1954-66

11,554 Ty Cobb- Sam Crawford, Tigers, 1905-17

11,490 Honus Wagner- Fred Clarke, Pirates, 1900-15

10,259 Honus Wagner- Tommy Leach, Pirates, 1900-12

10,211 Jeff Bagwell- Craig Biggio, Astros, 1991-2005

10,136 Mickey Mantle- Yogi Berra, Yankees, 1951-63

9,658 Mel Ott- Carl Hubbell, Giants, 1928-43

9,313 Walter Johnson- Clyde Milan, Senators, 1907-22

9,210 Willie Mays- Willie McCovey, Giants, 1959-71

9,040 Lou Gehrig- Tony Lazzeri, Yankees, 1926-37

8,902 Pete Rose- Johnny Bench, Reds, 1967-78

8,710 Eddie Mathews- Warren Spahn, Braves, 1952-64

8,581 Ty Cobb- Donie Bush, Tigers, 1908-20

8,554 Mickey Mantle- Whitey Ford, Yankees, 1951-67

8,414 Ty Cobb- Bobby Veach, Tigers, 1912-23

8,371 Billy Williams- Ron Santo, Cubs, 1960-73

8,101 Ted Williams- Bobby Doerr, Red Sox, 1939-51

8,053 Willie Mays- Juan Marichal, Giants, 1960-71

8,037 Lou Gehrig- Earle Combs, Yankees, 1924-35

8,029 Pete Rose- Tony Perez, Reds, 1964-76 and 1984-86; Phillies, 1983

Note the absence of Tris Speaker, Stan Musial and Eddie Collins, who are in the top ten of the individual WS list. Gehrig, in contrast, is 21st on the individual list but appears three times here. Neither Bagwell nor Biggio is in the top 60 of the individual list.

The choice of 1900 as a start date is important. If we go back further, we would include Wagner and Clarke’s years with the Louisville Colonels, 1897-1899. This would make them, rather than Ruth and Gehrig, the all-time leaders, with 12,960. Their Pittsburgh Pirates dates are given as 1900-1915, but they scored nothing at all for the years 1912-1915 when Clarke was the rarely-playing Pirates manager. Similarly, Wagner and Leach score 10,597 if we include Louisville, 1898-1899.

Part of the reason for starting at 1900 is that in the 19th century, pitchers picked up huge Win Shares totals, making comparison difficult. The second highest score by two teammates who began before 1900 is 11,717 by Bob Caruthers and Dave Foutz, who pitched together in St. Louis and Brooklyn from 1884 to 1891.
