  1. I love your website --- I just found it today 12/21/2021

    Although WAR is an important number it is not the only important number(s) to evaluate.

    SS
    George McBride was far below expected production per plate appearance for this group. I would say the 3rd spot is a tie between Zoilo Versalles and Roy Smalley.

    LF
    You only list 1 Left fielder. I would add Heinie Manush and George Case. Roy Sievers could also be considered.

    Thanks for you hard work developing this website
