It’s probably time we acknowledge that Kevin Pillar has been good for the Giants. I’m just not sure how. That .733 OPS of his is not above average, but it’s not terrible; but, it’s also heavily slanted towards slugging percentage. That .289 on base percentage is downright Felizean.
And, hey, if you want to go there, then let’s go there. In Pedro Feliz’s age-30 season of 2005, he hit .250/.295/.422 (.717 OPS) with 20 home runs and 81 RBI. His OPS+ was 85, or 15% worse than the league average hitter in what was the post-peak PED era.
