Issue with importing historical 2016 (and also: what the heck's up with Jose Altuve?) - Page 2

Neutered stats simply adjusts every player on every team in every league in every year to a 750 run context for offense and pitching/defense. The complication is that each individual stat works in concert with every other individual stat to create those 750 runs. Plus each home field has an effect and away games do to. I think hot dog consumption by fans might factor in as well.

I am away for the next ten days but I'll try to read any comments on my phone if anyone has any.

Hot dog consumption raises the level of methane in the stadium which probably boosts offense...Or something like that.

If I just move the 2016 Stats un-neutralized to the newts. It would be 96.7% correct as is. Would this make anyone happy for now? I could do this when I return.

96.7 % correct seems close enough to me; in life very few things are 100 % certain, except death and taxes.

That would be fab if you could do that when you return Sir Spritze. Thank you very much. Enjoy your time away.
