Beirnej1, your team looks fun and the league looks great. I like the 1989-1990 era for the stats.

But that leads me to a question: does anyone here understand how the stats modifications works when we use a different stats historical year from the current year?

I never know how to read them. If I use stats from a 26,28 or 30 team era but am playing with 16 teams, shouldn't all the modifiers merely be the correct percentage of the team difference (example: 16 divided by 28 then that multiplied against the 1990 totals)?

Instead they are sometimes all over the place. Home runs at 1.300 or something, whcih I don't know if it refers to that multiple of the 1990 totals or the totals of the year I am playing in which only 16 teams played, say 1958.

Thanks.
