Thanks, guy. I wasn't bothered by his skepticism. He has a right to question, given what he says is his experience. No problem.
Just for giggles, however, I momentarily turned off scouting so that I could get Boucher's REAL ratings. (I am pleased to see that, for once, my own scout was a bit more accurate than OSA).
Then I assumed commissioner powers and looked into his profile. The numbers are shown below. Make of them what you will.
One thing that keeps occurring to me. This fellow is now rated as a monster, and his performance did substantially improve this past season, but it was NOT MVP material. Not even close. Take a look at those three other guys who won, placed, and showed in MVP voting (see my earlier post). They all had
mega-seasons.
Now, again, I don't tinker with ratings. I don't monkey with league totals. Everything is at 1.000 default (even talent randomness is at the 100 default). But, I DO have the dynamic league setting turned on to occasionally simulate more/less batting/pitching.
Does anybody think this setting might have an effect like this that we've seen with this player? And on other players who had even better seasons?
