I would keep playing him unless you can draw a direct correlation to the team's poor record when he is in the game. Nothing in his stats points to a problem.

Absolutely. It's preposterous that a single player could be the difference between a .613 winning percentage and a .190 winning percentage. The idea he is the cause should have been rejected based on the original W-L data. You've now provided solid proof.
