The fact it's capped at 8 means it's a hard cap, which doesn't make sense from a data set point. The Bellinger thing is fine, he doesn't necessarily have to be a 100.

However, you're basically telling me a second year player who is a 60 to start will only be a 68 after hitting .400 with 15 home runs if his initial rating is a 60.

No one is asking for every player to jump dramatically, but the #8 just seems like a really random number to use across the board. If there is a cap shouldn't it be more like:

90+ player cap at 8
80+ player cap at 10
70+ player cap at 12
60+ player cap at 15
50+ player cap at 20
(random numbers, not actual data)

The 50/60 rated players are basically unusable until August, is what you're saying. Just doesn't feel right.
