OPS+ or OPS- ?
2007-07-05 11:27
by Bob Timmermann

The Florida Marlins placed pitcher Josh Johnson on the 15-day disabled list after yesterday's game and replaced him with outfielder Eric Reed. In 55 ABs, Reed has batted .109 with no extra base hits.

Reed has an OPS+ (park adjusted OPS) of -20. Which is not the lowest for a non-pitcher with at least as many at bats.

That dubious distinction belongs to Cincinnati infielder Enrique Cruz who has a -36 OPS+. Cruz had one AB for the Reds in April before being sent back down.

There are 20 non-pitchers with at least 55 ABs with a negative OPS+. Besides Reed, there is one other position player on a 25-man roster with a negative OPS+, Yankees catcher Wil Nieves.

Players with at least 55 ABs and an OPS+ at 0 or lower who are not pitchers.
