#9- Roberto Alomar- 22.3 WAR

Roberto Alomar and Devon White share the identical WAR totals after five seasons with the Toronto Blue Jays. Alomar was ranked 9th on the list seeing he is the first Blue Jays player to be inducted into Cooperstown wearing a Jays cap.

The Blue Jays acquired Alomar in one of the most influential trades in franchise history coming to Toronto along with World Series hero Joe Carter (8.5 WAR with Blue Jays). Alomar was the straw that stirred the Blue Jays offensive drink during their back-to-back championships.

In terms of WAR, 1992 was Alomar’s best season in Toronto notching a 6.6 WAR. The defensive wizard hit /310/.405/.427 with 177 hits, 27 doubles, eight homers and 49 stolen bases in 152 contests. The Hall of Famer was an All-Star and Gold Glover every year he was in Toronto.

Following the 1995 campaign, Alomar would sign with the Baltimore Orioles and play another decade with multiple teams. When it was all said and done, Alomar earned a career WAR total of 67.1 over 17 seasons with seven different teams. In 2011, Roberto Alomar was enshrined in Cooperstown.
