WAR (Wins Over Replacement) seems to be shiny new stat that everyone is using these days.
It's popular because it's the only one (that I know of) that fully incorporates fielding, baserunning, park effects, league effects, and weighted hitting.
I'm pretty sure that Santo is squarely in HOF territory in this stat (and in most others).

There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance
