Hanley Ramirez 2008 7.2 WAR, 11th in the MVP

Hanley in 2008 is one of the best examples of what having an athletic freak with such ridiculous hand-eye coordination be a baseball player. To begin with he had a 30/30 season and slashed .301/.400/.540. A wOBA over .400 and a wRC+144 also point to how impressive his season was.

The 2008 season was one the Marlins better years since that elusive 2003 World Series win. Hanley’s MVP-esque season played a huge role that year for the Fish. Along with Dan Uggla supplying the power to a lineup that has been traditionally very bereft of sluggers.
