Centerfield Ranking: #100

100. Barney McCosky- Career: 4.51. Five Consecutive: 3.41. Average: 0.41. Three Highest: 2.44. 10 Highest: 4.67. All-Star Seasons: 0. MVP Seasons: 0.

His best season was 1940, with a fWAR of 5.2 and a rWAR of 4.0. His slash line was .340/.408/.491 with a wOBA of .404. It was his best season in each of those categories. He probably deserves to rank higher as his seasons from 1943-1945 were taken from him as he served in World War II. I don't move players up in my rankings based on that because that opens a can of worms for all types of what if scenarios. I'll concede that he deserves to rank higher as does most players whose careers were cut short because of the war.
