Hey guys, new to the game and need some help here. I'm playing in a fictional league based on the real format of 2010 MLB with full minors etc. I cannot seem to grasp the ratings and how they correlate to performance in this game. I try not to look at the overall rating regardless if it is supposed to be a summation of ratings or the AI evaluation of that player, but sometimes there are times that I think performance is incredibly random in this game. For example. One of my stronger players right now is a 1.5 star guy named Francisco Feliz. He is hitting .287 with 3 homeruns and .412 slugging percentage. This is in 37 games. I normally use ratings to decide my lineups in any sports game, but he is outperforming someone who is supposed to be twice as good as he is. Is this just small sample size and he will come back down to earth or am I misinterpreting something.
48 47 28 38 53
Are his hitting ratings at 30 years old I doubt I'll keep him around long regardless, but wanted to see if I can get any input. If I'm seeing something wrong then maybe that explains why I cant seem to have winning records with teams I consider to be good. Any help at all with understanding the game would be appreciated.

It could very well be small sample size. 37 games isn't enough to make a judgement. Even a well rated player can have a bad season. Also, are you playing with scouting on or off? If scouting is on, the ratings you see can differ from their actual ratings.
