In the penultimate edition of our 2018 Report Cards, Matt Wieters comes under the spotlight. The Washington Nationals initially picked him up, hoping to be a one-year bargain, but he couldn’t live up to the hype.
In his two seasons in the nation’s capital, he slashed a measly .230/.303/.355 which led to a wRC+ of just 72. With the league average wRC+ sitting at 100 it means Wieters was a far below average threat in the box, as other players at that mark in the past two seasons include Erick Aybar and Chris Carter.
