I have never understood how Grich gets so high up in those WAR/JAWS ratings. Here are his other Baseball Reference metrics.
Something does not add up for me.
Black Ink
Batting - 8 (355), AverageHOFer ≈ 27
Gray Ink
Batting - 40 (784), AverageHOFer ≈ 144
Hall of Fame Monitor
Batting - 42 (504), LikelyHOFer ≈ 100
Hall of Fame Standards
Batting - 32 (305), AverageHOFer ≈ 50
And even more telling:
Similar Batters
