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 parenthetical is a career Giants WAR total with the eventual goal of a top 100 Giants of all time. The record is pythagorean adjusted for 162 games.

RP Hub Pruett .55-The Polo Grounds got a PA system and Bill Terry became the NLs last .400 hitter. Bancroft comes back after 7 years away to finish his career as a Giant.
