I never tire of talking about Dante Bichette in the 90’s. 1995 was even crazier. Almost won the Triple Crown, led the league in 5 major offensive categories. WAR equals 1.2



I don’t even hate WAR. I’ve definitely grown to see it’s value over the years….but WAR sure does hate Dante Bichette.

I know he didn’t walk much and Colorado was freaking bonkers during that era, but c’mon man. He must’ve been the worst Outfielder in history. If NL just had the DH, I’d have to imagine his lifetime WAR would be much higher.
