(Limited) Career Leverage Index

By Tangotiger, 01:42 PM

I put this csv file out there several years ago. It covered the 1974-1990 Retrosheet years. I’ll be working on my Retrosheet database in the coming weeks, and anticipate putting out career totals for LI, though I suspect that baseball-reference.com will do that eventually. Until then, you can enjoy this blast from the past.

Note: the list includes starters.
