no, they don't. turn on 100% accuracy and you will see a direct translation from the player profile editor 200-pt scale to whatever scale the display is set to. however, if ratings are relative to position, this won't be true. various other settings could cause it to be false, too.

all i mean by absolute is that it doesn't float. it isn't calculated relative to anything. relative ratings will tell you alot about whether they will compete at various levels, but development doesn't depend on results at all. as long as a player has the minimum ratings, whatever that is, they will develop well while they are there. i'd rather have a clearer picture of when to promote.

the step to the bigs is a different animal, but having the ratings the same as the majors is even more beneficial to this decision than stepping through the minors. i see a 56/80 contact in AAA and i know it is also 56/80 in the bigs. i know how 56-contact player tends to hit in my league.
