Studes takes on WAR graphs

By Tangotiger

Here’s the one that he ends up with, and I agree with him that the x-axis is useless. I’d remove that one, but you have to keep the y-axis. I need to know that it’s wins we are talking about, and what is the scale.

Finally, perhaps add the total WAR (in integer form) to the left of each player’s name.
