Baker is the best all-around player.
This is a more reasoned approach than most have taken, so it's a little easier to get behind. I'd like to see another full year of Beane, as he came on SO strong at the end of last year. It will also be interesting to see how Baker does as more of a 'feature' scorer this year. Some of his numbers might go up, but his efficiency's might drop.
Most of the advanced offensive statistics actually favor Baker slightly over the other two, while the non-offensive statistics are pretty heavily in his favor. I enjoy looking here for these types of comparisons:
