I think I agree with a caveat. 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.

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

Yeah, and I think the article was largely an excuse to write a clickable Ohtani/Betts/Freeman Top 10 list.

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.

Hence, Kyle Schwarber being included in the Phillies trio.
