I don't understand the WAR positional or wins above replacement, but Trout is blowing away from the pack the last few days

The home run robbery was huge for his D-War. Nearly cut it in half.

[Mudville]

Sure wish any of this would translate to actual wins.

This. The reason his DWAR was so low was he assisted a few homers in going over the wall which would have remained in the park otherwise. His 4 HR robberies in 2012 was also the reason his DWAR was so high that year. IMO That suggest home run robberies are a bit over-emphasized.

Subtract Trout's 8 WAR and the Angels would be 46-75. That would leave the team with the second worst record in baseball.

I hate this entire organization. Massive, epic historic fail outside of Trout. Burn the corporate office down to save the franchise (figuratively speaking).

I actually think it would be worse than that if we didn't have Trout. 

[YouthofToday]

We would certainly be worse than the Marlins. Wow, I just typed that.

True Dochalo. We don't have a farm system with any replacement players readily in-house. We only get get players the rest of the league have dumped in the trash.

They just jealous because Trout has the whole package.

 

Cabrebra is a great too and will win the mvp. I just hate the notion of people saying look at the Angels record, saying that Trout is over rated. Have Trout and Miggy trade places, let Trout play on a superor team and Trout would win the mvp.

[YouthofToday]

Trout, if anything, is perhaps the most underrated player in the game. He is that talented.
