and I definitely dont think Giambi and A-Rod circa 05 is the best 3-4 combination in history. That's hilarious
You do realize that VORP adjusts for position, right? That you can't just compare a 3rd baseman (which has a much lower expected offensive output) to an outfielder, right?

A-Rod wouldn't have a 91.0 VORP if he were an outfielder. Just saying.
