May we translate this as "changes in WAR due to defense, as determined by 3rd parties WILL NOT affect live ratings".
Frankly thought you guys were in cahoots with Baseball Reference and FanGraphs.

Thanks for the reply, your video on that was helpful BTW. For the lazy ones of us, wouldn't just looking at FIP projections and offensive WAR fluctuations be a good enough estimate for live update speculation. Except for a few upper tier live cards most of us could care less about them.
