TAB = roster WAR above what payroll predicted — the resource-controlled GM-skill signal (year-to-year ≈+0.47). WAB = realized wins above payroll expectation: TAB plus the non-repeatable luck of converting talent into wins (the scoreboard anchor, not a skill metric). Surplus = WAR × season market $/WAR − salary (fWAR; 1985–2026). Regime = quadrant of payroll × TAB. Δ Pay = payroll change vs the prior season. "pace" = provisional 162-game estimate for the in-progress season. Decision-maker = President of Baseball Ops if the team has one, otherwise GM. Ranked by TAB; click a row for the team, or a header to re-sort.
