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 1962 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 1962 club and a 2025 club sit on one scale.
The 1962 New York Yankees went 96-66, the best record of 10 clubs in the AL. Their team NUT of +12.2 ranked #3 of 20 clubs that season and #395 of 3,085 club seasons since 1876: +11.0 from the hitters, +1.2 from the pitchers.
