Mullins has a lot more ways to accumulate WAR but has also had a 3-year decline in WAR (5.9 to 3.8 to 2.8). Well last year's "decline" was based solely on him missing some time with injuries. Now if that continues, yeah it's a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyPickles Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 I also feel like the article was focusing on big hitters. Not making a holistic judgment of the three best players on each team. 2023: Santander: .797 OPS, 28 HR Mullins: .721 OPS, 15 HR 2022: Santander: .773 OPS, 33 HR Mullins: .721 OPS, 16 HR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and I think the article was largely an excuse to write a clickable Ohtani/Betts/Freeman Top 10 list. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh most definitely. I read MLB.com articles pretty often and they lean hard on highlighting the big-name stars over any real statistical analysis.
