Just looking at some advanced stats for fun this morning and this really is quite impressive. Especially Kevin Pillar. Jays have 5 players in the top 30 for AL WAR.
1. Donaldson 8.5
15. Bautista 4.2
18. Encarnacion 4.0
22. Pillar 3.8
28. Martin 3.2
What an incredible achievement that is for Pillar. From 32nd round pick and buried behind Pompey to start the season to the 22nd most valuable position player in the AL.
Also of note, Martin made the list despite playing in only 125 games.
