Howard isn’t overlooked... he finished his career with 14.7 WAR. Trout had dis first full year and a half. Adam Dunn hit 40+ HR 6x and had more WAR than Howard.

14.7 for Ryan Howard's career is a joke. WAR overrates on base for big guys and wildly underrates driving in runs.

It did ok for Frank Thomas. He did both and WAR didn’t affect him.
