That's not great, especially in the context of 120 years of baseball. A 60s/70s rating is easily appropriate, or even overrated.

Vlad jr. Is dropping bad. Tatis jr is worth 4.2 WAR and tearing things up. He started at a 80ish, and because of how he's done, he's now a 100.

Giolito is worth 5.3 WAR this season and has a career WAR of 5.0 meaning from 16-18 he was worth -0.3 WAR. Those projections are tough to overturn when it's based on 3 years of below replacement level production. Next year he will be better.

You're not getting told wrong info, just info you don't like.



No, Just bad rating from those that can pinpoint who & when & how they want to rate their favoerite players. It can be seen across PT rosters & players. All these if ands & but explanations don't mean you right because a different person in charge will rate the players he wants. It can be seen through PT. Some players rating are just stupid going one way or another. And another reason I hate posting to this board was your last stupid asinine sentence (You're not getting told wrong info, just info you don't like) NO, just don't like ppl like you explaining with smartass remarks) And to be rating don't mean anything bc it's just random outcomes. If rating did matter there wouldnt be 200 Bryce Harpers or Manny Machados card in AH. They are junk cards. $$$$$
