Yes, even 1* OSA players can be seen as 5* by the scout.



There is a simple way to test this by comparing both OSA and Scouts to the real ratings of players. I'd wager that the OSA is more...

I've noticed this, but the biggest statistical oddity I've seen is in pitcher's K/BB ratios. In MLB, Curt Schilling's 4.4 career K/BB is 2nd best of all time. In OOTP, one of my SP had a 2000+ IP...

Could it simply be a correction for home ballpark environment and/or pitcher defense?

I don't understand compensation pick eligibility and arbitration amounts in this game at all. They both seem to be determined by player ratings, which is obviously impossible in MLB.

Didn't know where to post this before, but this is the sickest statistic I've seen in OOTP so far (my first dynasty):

All I can say is we strongly disagree on player evaluation. Even the AI agrees with me as he has been the #1 or #2 Starter for the Cubs for 3 seasons with 10.5 Total WAR. In MLB, the going rate is...

So if the game categorizes it as a major transactions, all the more reason for it to be lumped in Transactions instead of Roster Moves in the Manager Options screen.

No, if you look closely he is an SP rated 3/3.5* by the Scout and by OSA. He had a +1.0 WAR season as a rookie starter and is cost controlled for several more years. IMO, it's easy to see that such a...

He went on to put up a 3.05 ERA and 4.0 WAR in 189 IP for the Cubs. What an unreal decision by the AI... there absolutely needs to be a warning before players are placed on irrevocable waivers.

My scout likes him even more.

Of course, I let AI make roster moves and it promptly placed him on irrevocable waivers, where he was lost to a team that moved him to MR. Lesson learned.

College players are more developed. I believer this is controlled by the Sabermetric player creation modifiers and these are all higher for college feeders.

It's always good to sort the Rule 5 draft by potential and see if any of your players are there by mistake.

I just turn Rule 5 off. It is mainly an annoyance.
