Thank you so much for parsing out the numbers. The contract money aside…injuries and players coming back from injuries (allegedly healthy), this should not be counted against them. Players come back at different rates. While some players show a downward trend, it can be turned around. I expect Vladdy to turn it around (just a hunch) and Devers was tearing it up before he needed to have his surgery (enough time to be ready for 2027.
I hope you revisit this with these players maybe next summer to compare, to see if with any, the trend was reversed.

I plan on revisiting each season
Great!
