Just looking at the stat lines of Bieber (first attached image; docked a point from 92 to 91) and Giolito (second attached image; bumped up two points from 94 to 96), and I have to wonder how:

- the way Bieber has pitched could ever lead to a decreased rating
- Bieber's performance can be judged as relatively worse than Giolito's (decrease vs. increase) especially keeping in mind that Giolito was already rated higher and thus should be held to a slightly higher standard

It also looks like J.T. Realmuto is not getting the bump to Perfect despite outperforming his ZIPS projection (.276 .333 .490 / .823 OPS) by a sizable margin so far: .290 .353 .677 / 1.030 OPS. This while already being the consensus best player at his position for some time now...
In fact, it looks like he may have lost one or more points of CON (I don't have a screenshot of his 'before' ratings so I may be mistaken here.)
