Player Name

Many teams have a pair of superstars who look to carry their team into October. Today, we’re going to be ranking the top 10 duos in baseball, based on their combined fWAR.

J-Rod is a budding superstar, who could become the best player in baseball in the near future. Ty France is having a nice year, especially with his offensive impact.

10. Julio Rodriguez and Ty France - 5.5 fWAR

If this list was not ranked based on fWAR, Manny Machado and Juan Soto would likely find themselves in the top-three, rather than near the bottom of this list.

9. Manny Machado and Juan Soto - 8.0 fWAR

When it comes to RBIs, this is the best run-producing duo in the sport this season, as they have combined to drive in 177 of the Mets 544 runs.

8. Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso - 8.1 fWAR

Alvarez has been the best hitter not named Aaron Judge this season, with a personal 5.0 fWAR as a DH, and Altuve’s wRC+ is the highest it's been since 2018.

7. Yordan Alvarez and Jose Altuve - 8.4 fWAR

Jose Ramirez continues to be a perennial top-10 player, but it’s his new 23-year-old All-Star sidekick that has our attention with his 144 wRC+.

6. Jose Ramirez and Andres Gimenez - 8.6 fWAR

Devers continues to ascend, as he’s become less of a defensive liability, while Boegarts is playing like one of the top offensive shortstops in the game.

5. Rafael Devers and Xander Boegarts - 8.8 fWAR

4. Austin Riley and Dansby Swanson - 9.5 fWAR

Riley is a legit MVP candidate who is locked in for the next 10 years, while the 28-year-old Swanson has made himself a lot of money in a contract year.

3. Aaron Judge and Anthony Rizzo - 9.6 fWAR

Rizzo is having a great season, but Judge is on a different planet that is skewing all the numbers in their favor, as he cruises to his first AL MVP.

2. Freddie Freeman and Mookie Betts - 9.6 fWAR

The Dodgers are the best team in baseball again, sporting a roster that is filled with talent, but the star duo of former MVPs puts them over the top.

Goldschmidt is currently the runaway favorite to win the NL MVP, while Arenado 160 wRC+ has removed any notion that he can’t hit outside of Coors Field.

1. Paul Goldschmidt and Nolan Arenado - 11.3 fWAR
