80 means nothing - I agree. With 100% scouting on it is just a crude rank/sorting of the players in the sim’s eyes. Earlier we were showing what round those level players came from in the draft. I just kept showing the distribution of how the engine sorts the players.
I only have one editor number in this post - what a 95 fastball was in 2100. I intentionally included that. If you would like to compare it to earlier in the game, I believe Hunter Greene has a 95 fastball (with a much higher editor value). Make your own judgements. I did note that there is a large jump at the beginning of the game in k/9 rate during the first generation that goes away as the sim progresses. Again, form your own judgement.
I don’t think I said scouting values correlate to WAR. In this entire thread. I don’t think I’ve said it in this post either.

I read the whole thread, I was just taking exception to the included the records being broken as if that was meaningful. Without recal on league totals easily get out of wack. Not sure what point all the numbers were supposed to make, they just made me loose your whole thread
My understanding was the main complaint was players weren't developing and years down the road you were left with subpar talent. This was then confused with how ratings were calculated and how they are trying to be more realistic so ratings aren't as inflated, or at least don't appear as inflated. Underlying ratings would still be true as before.
My confusion stems from how everyone uses the 80 scale as absolute ratings to make arguments about things being broken when it's a cosmetic rating at best and proves nothing if there if more or less of a player at that rating.
I'm just trying to understand what the real issues are as I have a league that heavy dependent on the development engine so I want to make sure before I import it over that this is a real issue and not just issues with ratings not being as inflated as before so therefore everyone must suck
