11 seasons · peak 15.8 in 2015
VAL (Value Above League) measures each MLS season against that season's league; the dashed line is zero — a season that added nothing above the league's fringe. ● peak · ○ league-best season.
5.6 career wins over 11 seasons · 1 win = 9.33 VAL
Best season · 2015 · +1.7 wins
1.7 of CLB's 15 wins (11%)

CIN's 20 wins · no wins above replacement this season
VAL 3.0 measures each part of a MLS player's game in his sport's own currency against what that season's fringe players produced, converted to team wins with rates fitted from every team-season in the encyclopedia. Team wins are the club's actual regular-season wins; a traded season, or one whose club record is missing, shows no share.
How often Kei Kamara led or placed top-ten on a MLS season board, and the shape of the career — computed from the same per-season boards the year pages publish, so every number is checkable.
