So here's another thing that has me puzzled. It has to do with how neutralized stats are created. If I look at Eddie Fisher in 1960, his neutralized stats are exactly the same as his real stats for that year. If I look at Don Choate, who had a fairly similar stat line for that year, the neutralized stats are quite different from his real ones. Also, his ratings are more reasonable -- perhaps a bit high but within a range that might have been true if he had pitched more that year. Anyway, I thought I understood how neutralization worked, but now I just more confused.
This same discrepancy between the two on the neutralized stats is exactly the same between the Gambo DB and the neutralized stats that come with the game's DB. I am also continuing to find that the latter DB produces significantly low ratings for Fisher than the Gambo DB, even though the stat line is identical.
