Fixed RP OVR Ratings?

Rosco Peabody · 09-01-2017, 12:52 PM

Does anyone know if there was anything done to fix Relief Pitchers' OVR and POT ratings? Almost everyone in my fictional league is below 30 when they were higher a few months ago.

you have to set it to "relative to position"

just how it works now... i don't like it affecting positon players, but it's just "overall" not their other ratings. shouldn't be a big deal to a human. ie ignore overall rating outside of very basic uses of sorting etc.

okay thanks. Not thrilled about that either, but it at least answers the question for me

it helps, but it's still an adjustment for the eye...

in the past a ~50 overall was absolute crap RP 99% of the time... not so much with this setting. sort by stuff for RP anyway. problem solved.

Player ratings relative to position is the default setting and has been for many/all? versions of OOTP AFAIK. It seems obvious that this is the best way to rank players in a cursory way. Overall ratings are not useful for detailed assessments. YMMV.

You likely have "overall ratings based on all players" checked which will reduce RP ratings for sure. I just checked it in my fictional league and RP ratings went down as expected.

Uncheck the box and you should be fine.

Yes that was the case.
