Peak WAR favors Rolen as well.
As hitters their 162 game averages are almost identical (eliminating the injury argument) and Rolen by the metrics, and also by the eye test apparently, was a better fielder by a decent margin. |
Personal attacks don't win arguments. Anyway:
Top 10 MVP Finishes - Wright 4 - Rolen 1
OPS Plus - Wright 133 - Rolen 122
Seasons with OPS Plus 140 or above - Wright 5 - Rolen 1
Seasons 30/30 - Wright 1 - Rolen 0
Seasons 20/20 - Wright 1 - Rolen 0
