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.
1915 75-87
C Chief Meyers .7 (20.7) Last Season
1B Fred Merkle 2.3
2B Larry Doyle 3.55
SS Art Fletcher 3.65
3B Hans Lobert .4
LF George Burns 1.5
CF Fred Snodgrass -.85
RF Dave Robertson 1.95
Uti Fred Brainard -1.1
3B Eddie Grant -1.15
OF Red Murray -.35
C Red Dooin -.6
SP Jeff Tesreau 6.65
SP Pol Peritt .7
SP Christy Mathewson -.8
SP Sailor Stroud 1.25
SP Rube Marquard -1.05 (16.35)
RP Rube Schauer -1.05-The end for Marquard, Snodgrass, and Meyers, who join the Forever Giants. It's McGraw's first sub 90 pythag season.
