Majors vs Triple A Question

[doors11]

I was wondering does OOTP 13 have someething built in that adjusts the game when you play your AAA clubs against your Major League teams.


I remember the old days when the Teams would come to town to play their AAA teams.

Seems like the AAA teams would'nt perfor as well against them Majors, and the Majors would perform better.

Is their aa setting for this in the game.

Thanks

Those were exhibition games, so naturally the major league club probably wasn't using its best players nor trying particularly hard.

You can set up whatever kind of exhibition games you like, MLB vs AAA or even lower if you want. Not sure what you mean by adjusts the game but the MLB should have better rated players so you would assume it would be the stronger team and perfrom better anyways.

Hey your right, but i went ahead and adjust all my minor league players to ratings as same as the major league players so i could get .300 hitters, guys with 30 or more homers,Pitchers that win 20 games etc,etc.

I was just wondering if the game would adjust the minor leaguers to preform not as well against major league teams.

Sounds like player ratings is what matters.

In Title Bout it is set up so light heavyweights don't preform as good as Heavyweights.. That is if your set the game up that wa

So i was wondering if OOTP 13 does this or have a setting to do this.

Thanks

That's something completely different. The only difference between AAA and the majors is the players' current ability, in both OOTP and real life. So if you adjust AAA players to be on par with big leaguers, they will play level with the big leaguers. The difference between Light Heavyweight and Heavyweight is 25+ pounds.

I understand that, that was a poor example i used, but what i was saying is that the game had it built in to lower the wayy the boxer preforms when against someone who has a advantage.

I was wondering if OOTP 13 had this or a way to turn a feature on that does it.

Thanks for all the answers.

The better ratings needed to make the majors compared to what is needed to be a starter in AAA is the advantage.
Better ratings is all the advantage needed

I know it's all about the ratings to have the player perform.

But how do you have all those great stats some of those Minor league players have if their ratings are below major leaguers who hit 16-20 hrs, bat .300 etc

Yet they hit 30-40 hr and bat .300 or so in the minors and when they come up to majors they can't match their minors numbers.

If you don't have their ratings to be able to hit those numbers in the minors.

I wish their was a way for the minors to have thier ratings at a percentage of their ratings when playing against majors or even aa against aaa.

like maybe 10-20 % lower against higher leagues.

Because it takes lower ratings to produce the same numbers in the minors
So while it may take 50 power to hit 30 HR in the majors while in AAA it only takes 40 power to hit the same amount.
Plus the fact they are platying against lower rated players means they will produce better numers as well.

Now this a simplified version and depending on your minor league strategy settings league totals can be affected. League totals are more strict for the minors so stats can get bumped up or down to match them. Where in the MLB level it's more the probability engine

I know it is off topic, but this thread made my brain hurt.

I would have assumed that all of the effect is because of the players playing against lesser competition.

Are there other factors at play?
