"All you need to know about WAR is that Zobrist was 2nd in 2009", andrewbytch
2008 - 2012: DP 27.1 BZ 26.5 Cano 24.1
2009 - 2012: BZ 25.1 Cano 23.8 DP 20.4
Career Road OPS
RC .858
BZ .827
DP .776
Some anti-Saber folks were bothered when Zobrist was hailed a few years back. Well look what he did this year, add the positional flexibility and he is a complete stud.
2012
RC .308 / .375 / .540
BZ .273 / .378 / .477
DP .288 / .344 / .446

zorbist (whom I love) had an inferior year to 2011. What is your point? He got hot the last 2months?

The anti-saber folks are frequently wrong.

BZ is a big reason TB stayed in it to the end.

Pedroia and Cano are household names, but what about Ben?
Most underrated player in MLB!
BenZ A.L. 2011 - now:
OPS 13th
WAR 4th

I make it a point to have him on all my fantasy teams. Multi-positional helps more in fantasy, but he is still a heck of a player.

Agree Ben Zobrist is underrated and a key player in Tampa. It continues to amaze me how easily he goes back and forth between 2B and the OF with that consistent bat. Solid value for the Rays.

I always liked Zobrist, dont need a Computer for that. Good ballplayers you can see with your eyes.
+1 .... I took notice to Zorbist in 2011.... I only found out the other day about the WAR rating... My eyes told me already he was awesome.
