they use real data... if somethign isn't "there" specifically it's incorporated into another overall % success/failure, or what have you.

another thread just showed that speed doesn't affect singles vs doubles, ceterus paribus. Which sounds bad onthe surface, but the over %s and ratios are and can be realistic -- from league-wide or individual viewpoint.

If it had everything mapped out and appropriately weighted etc etc.. it would be a mult-imillion dollar modelling program used by 30 MLB teams right now. oh, and don't forget about Vegas.

Alas, it's just a video game that is quite sophisticated from that perspective. So, don't get too down about it. Some things are inevitably glossed over, but i promise it's not whimsical in nature. maybe a bit simplified, but still tied to reality overall.

i complain about it on occasion.. had a nerd rage a month or two ago... i don't even recall what it was, now, but it was serious then, LoL. (not drawing a comparison to this thread onthe nerd rage vein... it's just understandable to lose proper perspective on it wen you pull the curtain back and not like what you see on a very particular factor of baseball)
