Its just like PFF. If it isn't perfect and I can find a few flaws out of hundreds of examples then it completely worthless and I will go with the alternative which is just guessing how good a Guard for the Lions is or 3 spending hours watching him every play after DVRing a Lions game. lol
Dude its not just a few flaws. Its a systemic flaw that undervalues performance and over values saving money.

Cole Young for Nolan Arenado Staight up . Cardinals win the trade.
J.P. Crawford and Harry Ford for Freddie Freeman. Dodgers win the trade
Cal Raleigh for Fransico Lindor, Pete Alonso and Mark Canha. Mets win the trade
Jesse Winker for Alex Bregman and Jose Altuve. Even trade.
Evan White and Jonathan Clase for Mookie Betts and Julio Urias. Dodgers win the trade.
Matt Brash and Jarred Kelenic for Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper. Phillies win trade.
Marco Gonzalez and Juan Then for Matt Olsen and Collin McHugh. even trade.
Don't use Baseball Trade Values if the website's purposes and limitations are misunderstood.

I don't use it and and neither should anyone else in my opinion.
As far as its purpose, Its name is literally "baseball trade values" if that's not what they intend it for they should change the name. Then maybe all of you guys wouldn't be linking screenshots of your proposed trades as if this website somehow validates the plausibility.
