Forever Giants:1938 New York Giants(Year 56)
1937 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.
RP Jumbo Brown 2.5
- Hubbell wins his 200th game; a Giants fan is killed after a game at a bar outside of Ebbets Field. Bartell gets dealt, but he'll be back.
