Joe Morgan at 77.  God needed some hitting to go with the influx of pitching. :(

RIP to a legend. One of the greatest players for one of the greatest teams in MLB history.

2B WAR: 1930-2020
1. Morgan 100.5
2. Carew 81.2
3. Whitaker 75.1
4. Grich 71.0
5. Canoe 68.9
that 100.5 bWAR is 31st all time.   He's behind Rogers Hornsby, Eddie Collins, and Nap LaJoie if you include guys from the segregated era for whom there are stats.  Among active players, only Pujols has more bWAR,

I hated him on Sunday night baseball.  Loved Miller.
