Fun facts! – Yordan Alvarez
In now his 6th season, Yordan Alvarez has posted a higher WAR (19.6) than Adam Dunn posted (17.9) in a 14 year career.
Having a slugger who is also a skilled hitter is such a joy to watch.
It appears that the all or nothing approach (or 3 true outcomes) from the 2010s is pretty much dead.
Other interesting comparisons:
-
Mark Reynolds – 6.8 WAR (13 yrs).
-
Chris Davis – 11.8 (13).
-
Kyle Schwarber – 13 (10).
-
Joey Gallo – 15.2 (10).
-
Vlad Guerrero Jr – 16.4 (6).
-
Pat Burrell – 18.9 (12).
