Pitcher "Stuff" is super high during draft.

BigPerm · 05-12-2022, 02:52 AM

Not sure if this is a bug or what. When doing an amateur draft in my fictional league I noticed a ton of pitchers having 100+ stuff when their pitches and velocity don't support that. When I got done drafting and set my lineups it showed their "Stuff" down to reasonable levels. Here is just one example, and it showed the same levels for both OSA and my scout.

IT will crash in about a year or two. Sim ahead 5 years and you will see right now that maybe 1 in 10 comes close to matching the draft stuff value. That is what is leading to low stuff values in the game itself, lots in the draft, none develop.

He's also 29 years old as an amateur & fully developed! That's far more concerning to me. Are you running some sort of custom league with weird age settings?

No, this is an inaugural draft for my fictional league. I made the mistake of just saying amateur draft.

The draft picture on the left is OSA, the only on the right is your scout. I think that is the reason the ratings are different.

Wait, you said OSA and the Scout are same? I do notice one is average and the other is low in terms of scouting accuracy. If you click back and forth between the two they are the same?

No, I checked both OSA and my Scout, both had the same Stuff ratings.

Pretty sure this is related to the stuff bug that’s been discussed in the bug forum and has a fix on the way, but not positive. Don’t quote me, I’m just a guy, and it may be unrelated LOL

If it is related, I think I recall seeing a fix is being investigated and may be in the upcoming patch?

Stuff is a relative rating. Individual pitch ratings are an absolute one. It may just be a side effect of league talent ratings improving after the draft.
