TC = A + PO + E ... which means the fielder gets his hands on the ball.

Balls in Zone are simply balls hit into zones the player is responsible for, even if he never gets to it. So in general, a...

Balls In Zone is important because it is the root of all the various zone rating schemes. It's as simple, and complex, as that. If you value zone rating as a stat, you value BIZ. If you don't you are...

The game presents all the traditional stats, so I think that if you prefer to avoid BIZ it might be useful to create your own view that includes only those stats you understand and know about.

OOTP presents several defensive stats. That said, Balls in Zone are an important part of Zone Rating.

As a general rule, the base talent levels for each skillset really should remain pretty constant year-over-year. So what these charts seem to be telling is mostly a good news story--though (as it...

Your views of the lower tiers of leagues being off was something I was looking at some years back. I'm sure the AI did some weird valuations st times, but all my real interest is in...

I love ya like an OOTP brother, Syd. We've both been around long enough to have seen some moments. The fact that he went too hard does not negate the point--which is that some people find this design...

In the case of online leagues, which is all I can really speak for these days, it's hard to break out the effect of a non-focused GM. Or a GM who is fine with not losing, and doesn't have to suffer...

Six points of BABIP is quite large in reality. And if it was all LHB,then that's roughly 18 points for them...which would be huge.

This is why, for real pitchers, after adjusting for defense and whatnot, you can generally use their BABIP as an indicator of how "lucky" they were. For hitters, once a fair sample size has been...

It is a skill for batters because batters have numbers that tend to repeat over the years (like HR rate...which is Power in OOTP). It is either not a skill for pitchers, or barely one, because it is...

You're talking about real baseball. Don't over-think this. :) For OOTP, BABIP is simply the rate at which a hitter/pitcher matchup results in a hit if the ball is hit in play.

It is a stat for both, but it is a solid skill for hitters, and barely one (if it really is) for pitchers.

In the older OOTPs (i.e V23 and earlier), pitcher BABIP did not exist for any pitchers...

BABIP is just BABIP. It is a skill for hitters, but not so much for pitchers.

Whichever white you used in v24 and all the other versions of OOTP before has been just fine. Trust me, it will be just fine in v25 also. :)

For hitters, BABIP is a skill like any other. For pitchers, it is not (or if it is, the signal to noise ratio around it makes it very hard to see).

Technically, you can use every rating to...

I haven't played with it in a long time, so my memory could be faulty, but I think HR adjustments continued to be influenced until 2.0. Maybe it was 1.8?

Regardless, the concept is all there, and...

If you change all the park factors to 2.0, then, yes, HR will inflate...and better players will hit more.

Unless, I think, as Syd says, the autocalc is run. I tend to forget about autocalc because...
