  Total player rating - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Total player rating (TPR) is a metric for measuring the value of baseball players, and to enable players to be compared against each other even when they played for different teams, at different positions, and in different eras.
Total player rating is computed using linear weights, in which each event in a baseball game (for instance, a base on balls, a double or a stolen bases) is assigned a value in runs.
Each player then has a rating in Batting Runs, Pitching Runs, and Fielding Runs, usually adjusted for park and position, and the sum of these values is divided by 10 and is expressed as an offset in games from an "average" baseball player.

 Criteria for baseball rankings
In all except the Hall of Fame and Golden Glove, a player's number of points for that criterion is, on a 0 to 10 point basis, his number of points as a fraction from the lowest scorer to the highest.
Each time a player wins the MVP, he receives 12, 11, or 10 points depending on whether the ratio of his number of votes to that of the second place finisher is greater than 1.6 (12 points), between 7/6 and 1.6 (11 points), or less than 7/6.
For players elected during their first year of eligibility, I consider the ratio of the number of votes the player received divided by the number of votes needed to be elected.

 Sonas Rating Formula
With their very high ratings, each of those players faced opposition that (on average) was weaker by 80-120 points, and so the ratings of both Kasparov and Shirov were artificially diminished by this effect.
Players who tend to be the rating favorites in most of their games (such as the top-100 or top-200 players) are having their ratings artificially diminished due to this effect.
In the case of the Elo ratings, this numerical constant is the attenuation factor, or "K-Factor".

The “glamour stat” for Total Baseball is its “Total Player Rating”, or TPR, which is an attempt to measure the value of a player, in wins, over an average player at his position.
A TPR of zero equates to an average player, while a value of 3.0 indicates a player would hypothetically bring his team 3 additional wins over an average player.

His TPR (total player rating) in Total Baseball (7th ed.) is 2.9.
He was one of only three Washington players and one of only four rookies to be rated this highly during the deadball era (1901-1919).
Schlafly was permitted to play because league rules stated that a player could be considered eligible as long as he was not under a professional contract.

 US Chess Federation:
There are two separate rating systems for over-the-board tournaments: "regular" (or existing) and "Quick." A player's regular rating is computed if he or she enters an event with a time control of G/30 or slower.
A player's Quick rating is affected if he or she participates in a tournament with time controls between G/5-G/29 (inclusive).
Both players have ratings, and their differential is less than 400 points (the latest published rating prior to the match will be used for calculating the rating difference).

 Deadball - TB Ratings by Position   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
TBR is the sum of Total Pitcher Index (TPI) for playing time as a pitcher --including a pitcher's batting and fielding-- and Total Player Rating (TPR) for playing time as a regular fielder, pinch-hitter, or pinch-runner.
For most players, the sum is practically equal to TPI or TPR, because one of those is practically zero.
The most consistent source of differences between the TB Ratings of different players are differences in their pitching statistics (for pitchers) and batting statistics (for others), in which playing time is, in turn, very important.

Total Baseball, published every two years or so (the seventh edition was published this year), created a revolution of sorts when it debuted in 1989.
Produced by John Thorn, Pete Palmer and others, it supplanted the long-standing baseball encyclopedia, Macmillan's, by demonstrating that its research was superior and its statistical tools invaluable.
Total Baseball uses formulas to assign a numerical rating to each player each season, called the "Total Baseball Ranking" (Total Pitcher Index for pitchers and Total Player Rating for position players).

 Dan Agonistes
It is true that Henry Chadwick developed a stat in the 1860s he called "Total Bases Per Game", which was slugging perentage with a different denominator, but it didn't really catch on and slugging percentage was not made official in the National League until 1923 and the American League until 1946.
For example, if the player had 55.0 batting runs in 700 plate appearances while playing in a pitcher's park with a BPF of.92 in a league like the 2003 National League where.122 runs were scored per plate appearance, the ABR would be 55-((.92-1)*.122*700/.92) = 58.6.
In this case the runs per inning of the player is added to the runs per inning for the league to take into consideration the increased or decreased offensive context that the player contributes.
