Here's another example of stats over ratings. It was because i was weighing ratings a little too heavily that this guy almost never got called up to my team. I was all set to trade him during the pennant race of 2016 when all i needed, in my opinion, was a solid fifth starter or bullpen arm to help push us through. Didnt find a deal i liked so when the next season rolled around, Paul Ellison, my starting 1B at the time gets hurt and is out 2 months. I call Gibson up thinking he's just gonna hit a few homers and bat around .220 and i'd send him back down. Needless to say that is the complete opposite of what happened and the rest is history. He just made his second All-Star team
