I wanted to update this since I just finished going through and doing the LW values for a 2nd team. The values are slightly different, but in the same range, so here goes. To read this table... the AVERAGE value of a + play made by Albert Pujols at 1B was 0.88 runs - in other words, the average runs saved was 0.88. He made a total of 31 plays, so the total runs saved was about 27.3 runs.

Eventually, I want to do this for a couple more teams, but it's horrendously time consuming and has to be done while the season is going on.
