Default Current active career leaders in OPS

1. Barry Bonds (39) 1.0533 L
2. Todd Helton (30) 1.0480 L
3. Manny Ramirez (32) 1.0102 R
4. Frank Thomas (36) .9960 R
5. Lance Berkman (28) .9796 B
6. Vladimir Guerrero (28) .9792 R

Bonds is still about a full point below Ruth for all time. Giles was 5th in career active OPS going into last year.

not enough season to "count" though, thanks for the info though because I forgot about him.

In case you are interested, www.baseball-reference.com just updated their site with the 2004 stats.

How about park-adjusted? Helton's and Walker's numbers are inflated by Coors or whatever the name is of the ballpark in Denver.

I am not sure if it's adjusted, but Helton does hit well on the road.

Last three years, 1.181 at home, .939 on the road. .380 batting average at home, .310 on the road, with twice as many home runs at home as on the road. He's a good player, but he's not the second best hitter in the game.

haha, Bonds has an OPS 1.429 OPS at home and 1.298 on the road. BA of .377 at home and .339 on the road, all of this is in the past three years.

Scary stuff.

Helton is good, but i wonder what his numbers would be at home if he played elsewhere.

Top 20 active Adjusted OPS+, which is park adjusted and is expressed as relative to the league (so 184 is 84% better than league average).

Minimum qualifier is 3000 plate appearances.

As you can see, Helton and Walker fall a bit when you take park into account.

BTW - Ruth is the career leader at 207, then Ted Williams at 190. Bonds is #3 all time.

1. Barry Bonds 184
(1.5 Albert Pujols 169 - only 2800 PA)
2. Frank Thomas 162
3. Manny Ramirez 156
4. Jim Thome 151
5. Jeff Bagwell 150
Mike Piazza 150
7. Jason Giambi 149
8. Lance Berkman 148
9. Vlad Guerrero 147
Edgar Martinez 147
Gary Sheffield 147
12. Brian Giles 146
Todd Helton 146
14. Ken Griffey Jr. 144
15. Alex Rodriguez 143
16. Chipper Jones 141
17. Bobby Abreu 140
Carlos Delgado 140
Larry Walker 140
20. Jim Edmonds 138
