Player stats contextualized vs the rest of the league and that player's position?

Since a big push with 23 is with the built in tutorial to help new players learn the game. I was curious if 23 will attempt to explain what certain stats represent and how a player's specific stat falls within a range for his position and the rest of the league.

For example, Player A has a WAR of 4.5, how good is that? You could look at something like this cheatsheet:

or maybe something could be built in the game that would tell you what percentile that player's WAR is versus league average and/or at their specific position. Maybe you rest the cursor over the stat and it tells you the percentile.

I think one learning curve for someone new to the game is understanding what certain advanced stats mean and how good is that player's number within a certain range.

In fielding it was be nice to nice if the number for the type of play (routine, improbably etc) is the number Attempted or Made.
