OK, donwloaded the lehman database. Damn, that is a lot of info. Pretty cool.

Now, I am trying to figure out how to meld that with two years worth of a HH simleague. Essentially what I have in high heat is something called vitals, which tells me the peak performance (LH and RH, BA, HR, K, etc. the normal stuff) of a player. I also have two years worth of stats I can use somehow, although I am not sure I need to. Any thoughts on how to best get this data into the database to make it convert to OOTP in a relatively reasonable facsimile?

The main thing I am thinking is that I need to get the vitals to match up as closely as possible with talents. But with all the various ages, I'm not sure how to do that with the Lehman database. I was thinking I could maybe make up stats for 20-30 years or something like that and put everyone's stats at 27 to be exactly their vitals and at every other year be a factor of vitals and age and maybe a random number of some sort (ie a players stats at 34 would be vitals*.60 (age factor) plus random factor (somewhere between 80-120% of vitals *age factor). Now I can do that, but is that gonna get me where I need to be if when I do the lehman import?

Or am I just completely misunderstanding how this works?
