Forever Giants: 1884 New York Gothams (Year 2)

1883 is here. My WAR calculation is a combination of Baseball-reference and Clay Davenport; I believe it to be the "best" WAR number available for historical comparison. 8 WAR is an MVP quality season.  The record is pythagorean adjusted for 162 games. 1884 (88-74) C Buck Ewing 6.3 1B Alex McKinnon  -1.4 2B.
