Major League Equivalencies

MLEs (Major League Equivalencies) by Eric Chalek. MLEs attempt to estimate the performance of this one player if he was dropped into the existing AL/NL framework. It does not estimate what an entire integrated league would look like. That is a much different project that would require simulating expansion of the league to account for all the additional talent.
