wait what happened to warp-2, -3?

This is terrible; *please* bring back the DT cards. I can't see the full data on players fromt the past, as your Roger Connor card demonstrates. I'm used to downloading data from the cards, and don't know how to do this now. And, as jessehoffins writes, WARP2 and WARP3 seem to be gone.

Please re-think this decision. I am a subscriber, and will certainly cancel my subscription if nothing is done.

After looking at Rickey Henderson's card, I wouldn't find RATE, RATE2, or RATE3 anywhere. Is this because of the new defensive metric pending?

Wow, those career WARP leaders are stunning. I had never considered that particular ranking method before.

I was a little disturbed at how far down I had to scroll to find Nolan Ryan. 74 seems kinda...low, no? His 1980 season (233ip, 3.35, 275k) is only worth a 1.1 WARP? Can that be possible?

Thanks, Dave.

A note on the site's player search feature. Used to be you could type in a last name, "rodriguez" for instance, and get a long list. All the active players had both a PECOTA card and a DT card. Inactive players just had the DT card. That actually made it easier to scan the list to find the player you were interested in. Is there any way to have active players listed in bold, as is done at baseball-reference, so that they are more easily distinguishable?

Thanks!

Is there a plan to include current year stats right on the player cards? I think that would be incredibly useful. In general, while I'm sure there will be some tweaking done to exactly what information is shown, I love having the historical stats right in the PECOTA cards. It's a feature that I have always thought would make the PECOTA cards more useful, eliminating the need to go back and forth between PECOTA and DT cards.

Put me in the disappointed camp. These new cards have less information than the DT cards and this is really sad.

Love the Chat integration at the bottom of player cards...!

Love everything that's new, but miss the specific defensive stats such as FRAA, etc... I liked seeing how all the metrics added up to the WARP. Could we have a tab that says "expanded" or "DT detailed stats" or something like that?

There's a whole lot to love about the new cards. However, I have three suggstions:

1. I second what PopTarts said above. I like to see the components involved in WARP, mainly because I am more skeptical of the defensive metrics than the offensive ones, so when I compare two players' WARP scores I like to see what kind of role defensive measurements played in any differences.

2. Again stated by somebody above, but I really miss the accounting of the number of games a player put in at each position. Will this be rectified when the new defensive stats are rolled out?

3. Wasn't there some sort of measurement previously of how good a comp each of the "10 most comparable players" are? And also an overall number indicating whether the comps are close or not close? That is an important number for me.
