The top five position players ranked by WAR according to FanGraphs;
| Rank | Name | Team | WAR | wOBA | Fld | Bsr |
| 1 | Jose Bautista | Tor | 5.8 | .483 | -2.3 | 2.5 |
| 2 | Jose Reyes | NYM | 5.3 | .409 | 1.7 | 2.4 |
| 3 | Andrew McCutchen | Pit | 4.7 | .395 | 6.9 | 0.5 |
| 4 | Curtis Granderson | NYY | 4.4 | .403 | 0.8 | 2.8 |
| 4 | Adrian Gonzalez | Bos | 4.4 | .425 | 6.2 | -2.8 |
| 4 | Shane Victorino | Phi | 4.4 | .399 | 7.7 | 2.4 |
| 4 | Matt Kemp | LAD | 4.4 | .439 | -8.2 | 0.7 |
A few notes:
- McCutchen's low Bsr score (Baserunning value) implies that he is a conservative runner when on base.
- Shane Victorino has played a better CenterField than McCutchen in 2011!
- Matt Kemp would likely have a higher WAR if the Dodgers would put him in RF.
- Joey Bats is a more aggressive baserunner than Jose Reyes!
