A [FiveThirtyEight]( email [Morning Distribution]( Thursday, April 27, 2023 Your daily briefing from FiveThirtyEight --------------------------------------------------------------- The Morning Story [Pittsburgh Pirates' Andrew McCutchen high fives his teammates before a game]( [Andrew McCutchen Is Hitting It Big Again With The Pirates]( By [Alex Kirshner]( A year after Albert Pujols [found the fountain of youth]( and spent his final season setting major league pitching on fire, the old-guy star of the 2023 season [hasn’t been a positional contemporary]( like Joey Votto or Miguel Cabrera. Instead, April’s ultimate veteran revival has belonged to Andrew McCutchen of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Much like Pujols, McCutchen returned to the club that drafted him after experiencing some ups and downs elsewhere. Now that he’s back in Pittsburgh, both McCutchen and his team are turning back the clock and playing their best baseball in years. McCutchen was a big star for the Pirates in the early-to-mid-2010s — winning the National League MVP in 2013 — but he spent five years traveling across MLB after Pittsburgh [traded him]( following the 2017 season. McCutchen was a fine player in those years: Bouncing between the San Francisco Giants, New York Yankees, Philadelphia Phillies and Milwaukee Brewers, he [posted]( a 110 OPS+ from 2018 through 2022, 10 percent better than league average. He also was [worth]( 6.7 wins above replacement, according to Baseball Reference, making him a solid contributor if no longer any kind of star. (The previous seven years, in Pittsburgh, McCutchen had been worth 34.2 WAR, the [eighth-most among all hitters]( McCutchen, 36, [signed]( a one-year, $5 million free agent deal to return home in January. And when he slipped on a Pirates jersey again, he regained superpowers. McCutchen is hitting for a .270/.371/.527 triple-slash line in his first 89 plate appearances. He has homered five times, while mostly serving as designated hitter and occasionally playing right field — a short jog from the center field he used to patrol [with Gold Glove skill]( at PNC Park. The only 35-or-older hitter [with more early-season WAR]( than McCutchen’s 0.6 is reigning MVP Paul Goldschmidt by a matter of decimal points. The Pirates have played only 24 games, but McCutchen has more or less already paid off in pure WAR-per-dollar terms, producing $5.1 million of value, [per FanGraphs](.
