Just how valuable has each Phillies regular position player been in 2018? It’s hard to give an exact answer to that, but that doesn’t stop us from trying.
FanGraphs has an interesting tool that places a dollar value on the production each player has had in an individual season. The dollar value is determined by “converting WAR to a dollar scale based on what a player would make in free-agency.” It’s important to note that WAR is just one tool that is valued differently by each front-office. Many of the players discussed in this piece also aren’t close to free-agent eligibility.
