My WAR calculation is a combination of Baseball-reference and Clay Davenport; I believe it to be the "best" WAR number available for historical comparison. 8 WAR is an MVP quality season. The record is pythagorean adjusted for 162 games.
1893 88-74
C Jack Doyle 1.85
1B Roger Connor 5.1
2B Monte Ward 2.95
SS Shorty Fuller .8
3B George Davis 5.65
LF Eddie Burke 2.05
CF General Stafford -.3
RF Mike Tiernan 3.25
OF Harry Lyons -.15
C Jocko Milligan .25
C Parke Wilson -.15
P Amos Rusie MVPQ 9.6
P Mark Baldwin 2.3P Les Germain 1.5
-Rusie's got the second best Giants season in the now 11 year existence of the organization, we get the debut of George Davis.
