How much the modern day WAR statistic HATES Dante Bichette.
In 1995 Dante came a Tony Gwynn and a Mike Piazza away in the Batting race from winning the the Triple Crown in the National League, and still WAR only credited him with being worth 1.2 Wins above an average player (baseball reference).
Guy played 14 years, was a lifetime .300 hitter with plenty of pop, led the league in hits twice and slugging once. Defensively, he led his outfield position in assists, several times throughout his career (he must have been awful at all other phases of fielding
).
His lifetime WAR is less then Aaron Judges........in the current season.
