Has the spectre of v6, and its new DIPS-based engine, affected anyone's strategy? From what I understand, and correct me if I'm wrong, the avoiding BBs/HR and Ks ratings are more important for pitchers and the avoiding hits rating is less important in that sort of system. Of course, I don't have a clue how the conversion between systems will work internally, but this could change the performance of a lot of pitchers. For instance, guys who were low in avoiding hits, but brilliant in avoiding BBs and Ks could drastically improve in v6, no?

We have already seen an increased interest in pitchers that have Brilliant K ratings as compared to previous seasons when this factor was greatly ignored.
