HOF Criteria (60 games)?

DreamTeams · 04-04-2012, 03:46 PM

What would you recommend settting the HOF criteria for a league with a 60 game schedule...

* Minimum Hits=
* Minimum Home Runs=
* Minimum Averge=
* Hits Minimum for Averge Above=
* Minimum VORP=
* Minimum Wins=
* Minimum Saves=
* Maximum ERA=
* Minimum Wins for ERA Above=

This is perhaps somewhat subjective, but simply looking for some insight/guidance on what these numbers should be.

I would test sim 60-80 years with that number of games and on the settings you're going to use and see what turns up as HoF worthy in your eyes.

If you're lazy like me you could divide your season of (60 games) by the MLB (162 games) and then multiply result (37%, since your season is 37% the length of an MLB season) to the totals you want to change (so say 500 HRs in the MLB would be 185 HRs in your league). Like I said, it's lazy, but it's quick. Avgs I normally leave the same or tweak to what seems normal in my eyes.

Since you are looking for some good ol' fashion hard numbers, this is what I would do.

* Minimum Hits= 1000
* Minimum Home Runs= 200 (could be 150 if season leader 11 - 13)
* Minimum Averge= .300
* Hits Minimum for Averge Above= 600
* Minimum VORP= ??? (whatever the game uses now)
* Minimum Wins= 100
* Minimum Saves= 200 (same as HR)
* Maximum ERA= 3.33
* Minimum Wins for ERA Above= 60

He's even lazier since he expects us to do the work for him.
