Fangraphs WAR listed next to the name and RC+ in parentheses.

Merrifield - 2.8 (126)
Mondesi - 2.1 (87)
Gordon - 1.5 (109)
Dozier - 2.1 (136)
Soler - 1.5 (114)
Cuthbert - .2 (100)
Lopez - -0.1 (55)
Gallagher - -0.1 (59)

Total WAR = 10

Cardinals:
Carpenter - .3 (86)
Dejong - 2.5 (101)
Goldschmidt - 0.9 (103)
Ozuna- 1.7 (118)
Fowler - 1.3 (108)
Wong - 1.0 (85)
Molina - -0.1 (70)
Bader - 1.0 (79)

Total WAR = 8.6

I've listed Soler as a RF instead of DH which may skew his WAR a bit. The DH would actually probably help the Cardinals more as they could keep Ozuna, Fowler ,Bader and O'Neil in the lineup together.


I was kinda expecting this to be even but when I look at it it's hard not to give the Royals an edge because the hitting has been better this year.
