Friday, August 6, 2010

So, did I go over every season by every San Francisco Giant...ever?

Yes, yes I did.  This is, in fact, the all time best and worst San Francisco Giants ever.

The Fifties and Sixties are here.

The Seventies are here.

The Eighties are here.

The Nineties are here.

The 20-Aughts are here.

The All Time Worst San Francisco Giants by Position

C Bob Barton 1969
WAR -.8
WARP3 -1.5
OPS+ 23
Translated Line: .175/.241/.175
-A translated slugging percentage of .175!  Even with only 119 plate appearances, Barton's our all time worst catcher.  A year later - he got 200 plate appearances.  Somehow, an OPS+ of 23 convinced the Giants to give Barton another 80 plate appearances. 

1B Enos Cabell 1981
WAR -1.7
WARP3 -2.4
OPS+ 72
Translated Line: .264/.284/.346

2B Bruce Miller 1975
WAR -1.3
WARP3 -1.3
OPS+ 54
Translated Line: .237/.293/.290
-This is a bit of a fudge; Miller split time between second and third, and spent more time at the hot corner, Rennie Stennett's 1980 would be what you would sub in for Miller.

OPS+ 51
Translated Line: .221/.276/.264
