Positional Standpoint Pt. II: First Base

Related Topics: Standpoint

Without looking, take a gander at where the Angels finished, by fWAR, in the majors this season? "Definitely not in the top 10, but maybe a few slots below that? 12-15 range?" That would be optimistic. "Sooooo are they in the top 20 at least?" You'd be wrong again. "Good lord, are they in the top 25?"

You should know this answer by know.

The Angels finished 26th in Major League Baseball at first base (0.7 fWAR) only ahead of the Pirates, Tigers, Rockies, and Mariners. It may not feel like it, but the Angels got some of the worst production from a position where offense reigns supreme.
