Hammer,

You're right, it does provide individual win shares on the player pages.

I haven't checked this utility against Cato's, although I did check it against the OOTP4 version of the Win Shares utility and they matched up...except for a slight error in fielding stats for Outfielders Innings played.

I've just fixed that and replaced the file on the server.

edit: I just checked against Cato's utility...the numbers don't match up exactly. Cato has the optionof using park factors, which this utility does not, and the Cato pages I looked at were calculated with park factors. I'll look at adding those in.

Lord knows I don't mean to malign Cato's History. I think it's one of the greatest add ons for OOTP4 and 5. It's just as you said though, it's a matter of the quick calculation as opposed to waiting for the HTML pages to be created. Also, I like to use Win Shares in determining who gets the MVP award in my solo league, so I need to know the answer before I generate the HTML pages. Or I have to do them twice.
