Season NUT is one number for production against that season's league average: 0.0 is average, and defense is left out. The roster lists every player who reached the 1949 qualifying bar (100 plate appearances or 25 innings). Team NUT adds those players up. A player traded during the season appears once, with his full-season line, under the club MLB lists him with. Each season is measured against its own league, so a 1949 club and a 2025 club sit on one scale.
The 1949 Brooklyn Dodgers went 97-57, the best record of 8 clubs in the NL. Their team NUT of +15.2 ranked #3 of 16 clubs that season and #216 of 3,085 club seasons since 1876: +12.7 from the hitters, +2.5 from the pitchers.
