Yankees MiLB 2022 V-Rating Leaders

Background: I have sifted through the numbers to determine who the best offensive players have been in Major League history by using runs produced, total bases, walks, hit by pitches, net stolen bases, grounding into double plays, and sacrifices to determine the most productive players per at bat.

I call this new formula The V-Rating.

Way back in high school math class I learned about algebra. The numerator is divided by the denominator. The formula used for determining a player’s V-Rating includes runs produced plus total bases plus net stolen bases plus walks plus hit-by-pitch minus grounded-into-double plays divided by plate appearances minus sacrifices.

Here is the complete collection of articles on V-Ratings.

This article, today, lists the Yankees’ farm system most productive offensive players from 2022.

Many of the top players are from the DSL. This could be deceiving, as the competition is not as polished as it is stateside. However, these are all names that you should become familiar with.

Several of the Yankees top prospects got off to very slow starts. This brings their overall numbers down. The following numbers are their V-Rating from June 1 to the end of their minor league season:

Orlando Cabrera 1.231

Austin Wells 1.042

Jasson Dominguez 1.038

Anthony Volpe 0.963

Oswald Peraza 0.962

Everson Pereira 0.961

It’s possible that we see all six of these players in the Majors later this summer as they are all in the upper levels of the system.

The V-Rating is traditionally a good predictor of future success. The fact that they each turned their season around so drastically indicates that if they get off to a good start, they will be able to sustain it.
