If it's a niche question I slip Google and go straight to Reddit. There's always experts in hobbyist subreddits who've explained it a million times, and sometimes there's even a helpful wiki.

#baseball I've been thinking ... WAR is a kind of pointless, or at best very abstract and academic, in the context of an amateur league, or other low level, where there isn't a ready or meaningful supply of "replacement" players.
So is the stat only useful at an elite level?

Going out to buy a pack of the new busty Brussels sprouts and never returning to my loving family

Sue should have played her idol on Genevieve, and then taken G to final 3, as a goat, in a show of "I'm your mother".

(One last immunity win would help too)
