HITTING -- The positional breakdown using STANDARD is calibrated to best account for the respective pools. I still recommend using CUSTOMIZE

PITCHING -- Actually, nothing was done. I checked the replacements and they were actually fine.

I have always used the two pool system of catchers and everyone else. Is there anything in the player pool that would
say I shouldn't do that?

Thanks.

Nope -- that's what I do.

Any changes in the background of this release? Seems to be a few changes in the latest set when I run the CVRC - Espinosa gone from $10 to $0 would be one example.

The one thing I noticed when setting things up was that the pool size factor required for this league has jumped from 1.5 to 8.3?

Are you using standard or customize? What are your league settings?

I can best answer when you post the info from above, but I do know...

Espinosa's BB-rate was corrected early Feb so if this is an OBP league and you did not look at the late Feb update, that could so the trick

As mentioned on the download page, the "STANDARD" settings were calibrated to match the player pool for common leagues. I still HIGHLY recommend using CUSTOMIZE especially if your league is much different than a common one. That said, 8.3 is a bit high, I need to know the specifics.

It's an AVG league. Customised settings - standard league roster but with single catcher. So, 11 catchers, 11 firstbasemen...55 outfielders etc...

Sorry, but to understand what is happening, I need details with respect to exactly what you are doing. The easiest way is to send me the CVRC, todd@mastersball.com

I'm not sure if this still holds true on the most recent CVRC but if you create two [or more] players with the exact same statistics but with different names, when the dollar values are run, there are multiple $ entries but they all have the same name.

Why would I do this?

I like to create an average player with projection set average stats. They are called Joe Catcher, Joe Middle, Joe Corner and Joe Outfielder [sometimes just Catcher & Outfielder]. I get curious about any scarcity impact - although I know it is essentially non-existent in the C/OF option.

It is true, it has to do with vlookup against the $value and sorting without running a macro. I have the same issue with some of the lower end players as some have the same exact stats.

What I do is add a really, really small number to the at bats. I'll start with something like adding .000000001 to the first batter's AB, .000000002 to the second batter, .000000003 to the 3rd, etc. The number is so small that the average is not impacted to a significant decimal place, but the computer can tell the difference.
