Stat questions/potential bugs - Experience / Catcher Arm

[HoustonGM]

1) What is the "Experience" column that can be added to stat views? I would assume its years of either MLB or pro service, but a whole slew of veterans have 0 for it.

2) I assume the catcher Arm stat is meant to quantify runs prevented by a catcher through throwing/controlling the running game, but after a sim of 2022, every catcher has a value of 0 for it.

For #2, I believe it's actually OF Arm, not C Arm.

Ah, that looks right

#1 appears to be total experience that includes high school, college, and international complex time.

If I go through my roster this lines up with a visual check\count of their stat years unless they were in the complex. Look up the year they signed and went to the complex and the total is now correct except.. some of those players end up being one year off. I think it comes down to when the counter turns over under the hood.

Why you'd have vets with zero? IDK maybe the game only counts years from the advent of the league? IE historical years played previous to league creation while included as "historical stats" aren't counted as "game experience"?

Some other glitch?

My league is old enough all current players I looked at matched up to their experience number except for the "one year offs" I described already.

Here's the Braves position players in a brand new live start. Really seems like it's just completely random.

Then I think I'd report that to the bugs forum if it happens at game creation. Maybe they at least answer as to how and why it gets counted that way?

All I know is in my on-going league the numbers matched on every player I checked.
