Poz on Raines

By Tangotiger, 08:47 AM

I love Poz and I love Raines even more.  Put it together, and you have a Poz blog on Raines.  I haven’t even read it yet, just so excited to see the entry to begin with.  Now, let me go read it…

Wow, Win Shares loves Raines.  Way more than Rally’s WAR.  Here are the career WAR totals for the guys Pos mentioned as having fewer career WS than Raines:

Player WAR
Raines 65
Clemente 84
Boggs 89
Carew 79

Win Shares doesn’t do arm rating does it?  That’s part of the difference, I would guess.
