100. Alvin Davis- Career: 4.36. Five Consecutive: 3.23. Average: 0.48. Three Highest: 2.73. 10 Highest: 4.36. All-Star Seasons: 1. MVP Seasons: 0.
His best season was 1984, his rookie year. His fWAR was 5.8 and rWAR was 5.6. His slash line was .284/.391/.497. His wOBA was .387 which was the second highest of his career. He would have ranked higher but he only played 9 seasons which hurt both his career number and his 10 highest. He had consistently high OBP every year mainly because he walked a lot. He also did not strike out that much. All in all he was a pretty good player, who may deserve to rank higher. His best season according to WAR also matches up pretty perfectly with other measures, as it was his only All-Star season and his best finish in the MVP voting, as well (12th place). His second best season according to WAR was 1989 with a fWAR of 4.5 and rWAR of 3.9 and it was the only other time he received votes in the MVP voting as he finished 23rd. I thought it was interesting because I have heard people say that WAR for past seasons may lead to a revisionist history, which I haven't found to be true.
