About the rating
The ledger opens every club at 1500. Afterward, each game alters that mark according to the surprise of the outcome and the run margin. A gap of roughly 80 points corresponds to a run. The scale is meant for comparison inside a single competition; clubs from separate leagues seldom cross paths. It is a SluggerIQ measure, not an official ranking.
