Which Player Do You Want?

[Gorditadogg]

Oh shoot, I was wrong about who Player B is. Duh! How about adding in Player C then:

A 34 HR, .325/.398/.579 155 OPS+, +0.3 DWAR
B 36 HR, .298/.421/.577 172 O+, -0.6 DWAR
C 40 HR, .303/.415/.587 176 O+, +0.3 DWAR

Other random info:

A R/RBI 130/143, SB 3, MVPs 3, Top5 6
B R/RBI 113/102, SB 10, MVPs 3, Top5 9
C R/RBI 121/103, SB 23, MVPs 3, Top5 9

Or how about these two?:

Player A/Player B

R. 93. 101.
H. 173. 154.
HR. 27. 16.
RBI. 107. 69.
BA. 290. 271.
OPS. 855. 819.

You can do a lot of funny things with numbers...

Yep, point taken. Especially if you leave important stuff out.

A SB 7, GG 0, OPS+ 123, MVP 1, Top5 1
B SB 42, GG 5, OPS+ 132, MVP 2, Top5 4

Both great players, but it's easy to see why only one is in the HOF.

And just coincidentally, Player A stats are almost a doppelganger for this recently retired player C:

A 27 HR, .290/.356/.500/.855, 123 OPS+, 7 SB, 1 MVP, 1 Top5, 0 GG

C 28 HR, .290/.361/.495/.856, 118 OPS+, 7 SB, 0 MVP, 2 Top5, 2 GG

I would want to know about how he is in the clubhouse and if he is a total s#*t show of a personality- numbers are great but there is more to being a great player than that.

I’ll take one of each.

It should be noted that you get player B for 25%+ more games, and played in a period where the .977 OPS is significantly better in context to time and place.

I pick B, because of the context.

Very unamerican of you to downgrade "Player A" due to him missing a few seasons so he could serve his country. LOL

I'm voting for the war hero who married the most iconic actress/celebrity of his generation.

So that's the tiebreaker for you two, then? Interesting. 3 MVPs but not a good clubhouse guy. Forget about him.

Didn't they both win 3 MVPs?

Maybe the tie breaker should be postseason play?

Player A had more World Series, but Player B was the better hitter.

Player A in the postseason: .271/.338/.422 with an OPS of .760
Player B in the postseason: .257/.374/.535 with an OPS of .908

Player A had 8 postseason HRs in 199 at bats
Player B had 18 postseason HRs in 230 at bats
