False.
Even this year in only 122 games ARod had a better rWAR than 3 out of the last 4 full seasons for Howard.
Plus the AL allows him to be a DH. |
That's because Howard is a painfully bad 1st baseman which kills his WAR. |
Even in oWAR his last 4 healthy seasons were
2.0
3.9
2.4
2.3
The last 2 years ARod was
2.3
2.3
But that was in 99 and 122 games respectively.
He's still hitting better and if you keep him as a DH with a start at 3B here and there he'll remain healthier.
I'd trade Howard for ARod whether I'm a NL or AL team. |
Good point, I forgot to take into consideration GP.
On a side note, does anyone know how they calculate WAR? |

Fangraphs.com has a nice glossary. Should explain most everything.
