Yeah not sure why baseball RU-vidrs are offended by Trout ranking low in these. Mike Trout is second among hitters from 2021-2023 by WRC+ but only 37th in WAR. 19th seems right to me especially since his offense was also down significantly last year.

12:46 And if Dansby Swanson is at 43 where is JP Crawford who in the exact same number of plate appearances had more Runs, more Hits, more Walks, and fewer Strikeouts, only 4 fewer HR but also had a higher AVG, OBP, SLG, and OPS than Swanson, and despite what the defensive metrics (which are in their early stages and not great) say JP is actually a solid defender at short stop.
