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).
