Competitive Balance in MLB
With the end of the Major League Baseball season, I have calculated the Noll-Scully measure of competitive balance and find that MLB was 1.509 for the 2014 season. Below is a chart of the Noll-Scully measure of competitive balance since 1982. For the entire time period the average Noll-Scully measure of competitive balance is 1.700. So for this time period, the 2014 MLB season was more competitive than the average since 1982.
