So far this season Dexter Fowler is playing great! .316/.435/.533

Why did his rating get adjusted down so much or even at all?

I also know someone will respond by saying that I could just edit him. I try my best not to let myself cheat. If I allow myself to adjust his ratings back to about what they used to be, I find it difficult to do that. Why is it so difficult to adjust a player's ratings to something specific?
I mean, editing the player isn't really cheating. The people at ZIPS or PECOTA are not some sort of predicting savant machine. See, pretty much every computer nerd prediction for Royals w/l past few years (this year they may be right but I doubt it by the end of the year)

Either way, it's your game. Play how you want. I had my thread where I cheated to put Riley Pint on my team because my kid plays against him.
