well, babip was always a hidden rating using some formula of the player's other hit tools except for plate discipline. similar to how contact quality, launch angle, and exit velo are what you would use irl to try and guess a player's babip.
anyway it's my understanding that babip has a public rating now because of perfect team players who are looking for any kind of edge with the single digit rating system that PT uses. they want to know who has the high babip ratings so they can get good cards. i haven't touched PT since my first edition of OOTP because it is unfun. furthermore i am perfectly capable of using the 20-80 system to intuit what a player's likely babip is going to be in my offline and online leagues that i play in.
hopefully this is something you can toggle on and off in the league settings because i think it is stupid.
