platoon rating barely different

bluesman98 · 10-04-2025, 06:10 PM

I started a 2025 league replay on OOTP26. The players have little difference between L/R hitting ratings. For example on Detroit hitters like Ibanez and Carpenter in real life have drastic differences. In OOTP26 they have virtually no difference. Is there a settings button I need to activate? I can't believe a game that has the reputation this one has does not take into account for individual hitters L/R splits.

I'm playing OOTP 25 and I've noticed the same thing. Players that were heavily platooned only have a slight difference in their L/R splits.

I'm not sure if this is the issue but there is a checkbox in the setup to use real life splits, I think it's in the same area as the one for whether to use entire career for fielding ratings, pitcher stamina, etc.

I don’t know your sample size, but I’ve noticed that there can be lengthy swings where the platoon difference doesn’t show up or can even be reduced.
