The Great Run Estimator Shootout (Part Two)

Last week, we left off with a bit of a cliffhanger. Hopefully we can resolve those issues now.

But first, I want to clarify the reason for doing this. There are a lot of different rate metrics of offense available out there, such as EqA, wOBA, and OPS+. (There are also quite a few measures of runs above average and replacement in the world.) The idea is to capture which best measures a player's contribution on offense. Now, onwards.
