If this is what you are looking for, it doesn't exist that I know of, but should. And if it does exist, I'd love to know where to find it. If the previous post about neutralizing the stats is what you were referring to, then those instructions are right on, and sorry for complicating the discussion.
I guess I'm not sure what you mean. I assume the neutralized database that comes with the game has some sort of formula to "guess" what a players ratings would be in a certain year, for instance how Ty Cobb would bat in 1950 or whatever the chosen year is. Is that what you mean?
