Yes, Scott, but is the ability to grind out infield hits pre-programmed or not? IOW, does a hittng rated 7 with speed of B going to get on base more frequently than a 7 hitter with speed of E?

This question is not as frivlous as it appears at first glance.

Also, is GB% randomly assigned? Logically, you'd assume that a pitcher with a high% would give up more IF hits, get more DPs and fewer SFs....Or are we asking too much of the stat engine?
