This website is dedicated to presenting baseball statistics and history from a viewpoint not found anywhere else. Baseball by Positions compares players in the most
meaningful way possible - by using player performances at the same position in the same league in the same season.  Every combination of position, league and season will
ultimately be here.
The 2009 National League tables are now posted, with the 2009 American League tables soon to come.
