Arm and baserunning ratings

BMW · 02-25-2007, 11:12 PM

Can anyone on the development team give me a general idea on how Arm and baserunning ratings are calculated during a Lahman import?

For instance, since Lahman does not include catcher's SBA and CSA, I imagine their Arm might be calculated off of Assist numbers.

Can anyone help me out here?

Thanks,
Bryan

they are randomly assigned

Which brings up the question of why Lahman became the default database, rather than one with a more solid grounding.

arm and baserunning are randomly assigned no matter what DB you use. that data isnt in any DB that i know of and OOTP isnt setup to import it even if it was.

They aren't random in the Strat-O-Matic database, though that's a bad example because it's proprietary.
