Let’s continue the series and look a right fielder Kole Calhoun as he looks to bounce back from a pedestrian 2017 and possibly form a great outfield alongside Mike Trout and Justin Upton. Kole’s resurgence should be the difference between the Angels having a good outfield and a great one.
While wRC+ is a better metric than OPS+, in Kole’s case those numbers have been nearly identical and more readers are familiar with OPS+, so I am going with the more widely understood metric.
For those new to these figures, 100 is considered league average and Kole’s career OPS+ is 110.
