Stats are determined by the league modifiers (by far the most important part) working along with the ratings in each individual category, (contact, gap, power, stuff, control etc), with a bit of randomness thrown in.
Can you maybe describe your league in a little more detail though? I'm not quite sure what you're trying to do or the results you're looking to get, which limits the useful amount of advice I can give  |
The league I am wanting to make and just see what happens for fun, is to import the best MLB players ever, like 1,600 to 2,000 players, plus create a few Negro League/Cuban/Asian players, and edit them to the age of 17 or 18 (ones that need it). Many of them would have high potential ratings, but I would lower their current stats level (so lower BABIP, K's, EYE, GAP, POWER, etc...) to an 17-18 year old rookie level rating (some would be more highly rated than others). The lowest rated might would be 2-3 star potential. Their potential would be based on their best years. And it's possible to go into the editor and set their potential to what that was or might have been.
Oh... and I forgot. I will add these players to the 2016, or an earlier years', pool of players.
