Forever Giants - 1886 New York Giants(Year 4)

Wednesday, November 5, 2014

1885 is here.

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.
