OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Calculation of Movement rating

I was looking at the new RA Dickey card and noticed the really low Movement rating (48) which seems to put him at a huge disadvantage in the PT universe (given all the top contact/HR hitters).

I don't recall his ratings being so low when I played historical games in regular OOTP.

When I checked his 2012 real stats, he had the following stats
0.9HR/9 and 24 HR in 233 innings (or 1HR every 9.7 innings).
This seems like a pretty reasonable stat.

In comparison, Jameson Taillon from 2018 had a similar HR/9 rating:
0.9HR/9 and 20 HR in 191 innings (or 1 HR every 9.55 innings).
His movement rating is 55 (+7 vs Dickey).

Luis Severino from 2018 also has the same HR/9 and a movement
rating of 58 (19 HR in 191 innings or 1HR evert 10.05 innings).

I am sure there is some easy explanation that I must have missed somewhere. Hoping someone could provide some quick feedback.

I am still trying to fill my Knuckleballer team and survive in D362 but with Dickey's Cy Young year movement stats so low, he seems to be destined for lower levels.
