I don't have an understanding of it, enlighten me why those 3 outlets, especially B-Ref and Fangraphs can carry such WILDLY different WAR numbers and fans really give a crap about the number being weighted so heavily in judging a characters production? Literally the value of a player has been utterly debased to WAR and it's a subjective formula (judging on Jorge Polanco amongst aforementioned Xander and many, many others) and also hyper sensitive to the talent existing in the AAAA of rejects.
