WAR PER SEASON
As an offensive player he was in the mold of Steve Garvey, as an outfielder he was in the mold of a statue of a Civil War general. That’s why Joe was a designated hitter for so many years. Three times in his career he drove in 100 runs despite being well below league average as a batter (wayyyyy below). He benefited greatly from three things: (1) staying healthy, (2) having great teammates, and (3) hitting in the middle of the lineup.
