Forever Giants: 2007 San Francisco Giants Year 50 (125)

2006 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.



2007 77-85
C Bengie Molina 1.85
1B Ryan Klesko .55
2B Ray Durham  -.9
SS Omar Vizquel 1.05 
3B Pedro Feliz 1.85 
LF Barry Bonds 4.25 (117.9) Last season
CF Dave Roberts .4
RF Randy Winn 2.7
SS Rich Aurilia -.05 
2B Kevin Frandsen -.35
RF Fred Lewis .9
Uti Daniel Ortmeier .5
CF Rajai Davis 1
RF Nate Schierholtz -.05
1B Mark Sweeney .45
SP Matt Cain 4.8 
SP Barry Zito 2.1
SP Noah Lowry 2.4
SP Tim Lincecum 2.25
SP Matt Morris 1.05 
RP Kevin Correia 2.45
RP Brian Wilson 1.35


-The 50th San Francisco season; the 125th season of Giants baseball.  It's our third straight pythag in the 70s, first time in 30 years that's happened. Barry Zito and Tim Lincecum join the rotation - and Barry Bonds breaks Hank Aaron's record, finishing his career with 762 home runs. Even in his final season, he's still the Giants best position player.
