perhaps in your baseball universe you want it another way, but that doesn't mean the way OOTP does it is wrong. not that i'm defending the game (last time i purchased OOTP was v6), just you are clearly using your own bias which is pretty much not in-line with how it's really done to make a judgement on a game.

I don't think Ksyrup or most users would have issues with what you describe. What I hate (and what I'm fairly certain Ksyrup doesn't like) is when a Cy Young or MVP winner gets cut the next year midseason (or earlier) because his "ratings" have suddenly dropped.
