I have uploaded a newer version of the RBU utility (version 2.0). There is no real difference other than updated ratings. I made some minor changes, the most notable being that pitchers now have truer ratings with respect to their actual on-field performance. Previously, I had been trying to replicate SCEA's distributions with pitchers' batting ratings, but this causes some players to be rated somewhat higher than they actually performed. A minor change, but you'll notice more pitchers will be zeroed out.
I also readjusted the overall ratings calculations. I think I'm closer to the mark now.
Additionally, I am releasing a beta version of a custom player calculator based off the calculator I use for the RBU ratings. Instructions are contained therein but, in short, it rates players very closely to how my RBU calculator does, with some minor changes here and there. The major drawback is the lack of fielding calculations, however, I allow for direct input of ratings guided by the proper ranges found in the game. I hope you'll forgive this, my fielding calculations are far too involved to be able to work in what is aiming to be a more simplistic tool.
The utility allows you to export players into a table and also contains an input sheet similar to the one in the RBU utility to make data entry into the game a little easier.
Both utilities require Microsoft Excel with Visual Basic
