Ordonez, 1.036<BR/>4. C. Pena, 1.027<BR/>5. C. Jones, 1.012<BR/>(Ortiz is 1.001)<BR/><BR/>It's a little tough to get used to, but generally speaking a decent player starts at about .800, a good player is about .900, a great player is above 1.000. <BR/><BR/>Some people divide OPS in their head by three:<BR/><BR/>1. ARod .353<BR/>2. Bonds .350<BR/>3. Ordonez .345<BR/>4. Pena .342<BR/>5. Jones .337<BR/><BR/>I personally prefer OBP to OPS because power generally follows a good eye, but it does help equalize the extremes.Wooden U.
