With Spring Training coming soon, I thought I would touch on a topic that will occupy the minds of some Giants fans: Mike Yastrzemski.
A frequent complaint that I saw all through the 2024 season was complaints about playing, and even rostering, Mike Yastrzemski. Many today still think little of him and his accomplishments as a Giants player. In this post, I thought I would discuss what I know about WAR's foundations, and what that means about players like Yaz who produce 1.5-2.5 WAR per season.
