Forever Giants: 1897 New York Giants(Year 15)

1896 is here My WAR calculation is a combination of Baseball-reference and Clay Davenport; I believe it to be the "best" WAR number available for historical comparison. 8 WAR is an MVP quality season.  The record is pythagorean adjusted for 162 games. 1897 99-63 C Jack Warner 2.45 1B Willie Clark 1.5  2B Kid Gleason 2.4  SS George Davis 6.5 3B Bill Joyce 3.2  LF Ducky Holmes -1.5 CF
