Also, I am using the 20-80 scouting scale and the ratings for the fastballs are pretty low, only 10 pitchers (!!) have a rating higher than a 45 for their fastball.
Not sure what would cause this strange import, I imported neutral stats...
Oh and I'm not saying this is a problem related to the database, I just haven't really paid much attention to this in the past. I only noticed because I had Nolan Ryan on the team I was going to take and he wasn't even rated for a fastball!!!

OK have an older 1994 MLB historical start with the Gambo/Sprtize and noticed the same thing, almost none of the pitchers in the league have a fastball!!! I quit this one before I was even through the all star break because the offensive #'s were very inflated, i.e. league batting avg was .301!!! Now I may know why...

Found the problem with this one. Pretty easy catch. In the master.csv I was using there was an extra column that caused the pitches not to be aligned right. The only fastball pitchers were ones the game designated as fastball pitches). I have let Spritze know to double check his and this will fix the problem.
It may (probably not but maybe) also fix up some of the fielding issues some people are seeing.
