Brady Anderson

[sgwrestler11]

So I had a quick question for anyone who does caps.. I recently found a legend roster I am in love with. I agree with all the ratings pretty much except a few. I noticed they have Brady at a sixty something overall. I feel as he should be higher. Anyone care to chime in what the would give him for his hitting and fielding stats..

How are you able to calculate for a specific year? I'm doing a complete overhaul of my all time roster with specific years, so this would be extremely helpful....and 87 sounds accurate.

Re: Brady Anderson

Sc73Ray I'm actually using your Roster. I really like it noticed you had brady a 60 something overall with his contact ratings in the 40s

Nice! Glad to hear you're enjoying them. There was a reason I made him so low though. Initially, I wanted the 25 man to be those that had already reached their potential. At the same time, I still wanted to add additional legends to continue to come up...so basically make them "prospects". I did not maintain that consistency though....so this roster is all over the place....with I believe only a handful at the "legends prospect" level.

In the overhaul, I will not be doing that at all. All players will be at their "best" season. I'll have more info on that once I have a realistic timeframe.

I have charts for 0-99 for each attribute but my chart is actually calibrated to 1982 for most everything . Still it translates well to years fairly close to 1982 . I did 1996 for Brady because it was his best year according to WAR . I am surprised hes not a mid 90s overall . But that probably has to do with how I laid out my charts and he doesnt rate well on 3 of the 4 defensive attributes . I wanted a varied spread of ratings so I used 60 as average for most of the attributes . Power I use 50 as average . Baserunning aggresiveness I used 40 as average . For range I used different numbers as average according to the position . For instance average range for a shortstop I used 70 and for catcher I used 50 as average . For firstbase I used 55 as average . Also on range I used 99 as the high for shortstops but for catchers I used 79 as the high . So my overalls will be on the lowish side for the most part but I can live with that .

Re: Brady Anderson

If you do a overhaul and make it their best seasons, then you are gonna have everyone's ratings higher than they already are aint?

Re: Brady Anderson

This is how my potential chart looks . I use WAR to calculate potential . I use a players highest season of WAR to use as his number for potential . This chart isnt for catchers and relief pitchers . They have their own seperate charts for potential . This is just P/IF/OF .
99 9
98 8.7
97 8.4
96 8.1
95 7.8
94 7.5
93 7.2
92 7
91 6.7
90 6.4
89 6.1
88 5.8
87 5.5
86 5.2
85 5
84 4.7
83 4.4
82 4.1
81 3.8
80 3.5
79 3.2
78 2.9
77 2.6
76 2.3
75 2

And it continues on to about 50 . A WAR of 1 is 65 and a WAR of zero is 55 . Basically this is how all the charts are .

Not necessarily. Monster seasons are extremely rare....quite a few hall of famers never have one....just steady, consistent great years. I have the first draft done and 85%-90% looks like you would expect it too...the other 10-15% is a bit weird.

Some players will be rated highly, but have crappy potential...as they only had the one good year before falling off a cliff.

I'm thinking of doing something very similar to this, but actually breaking it down by position. What you said in the previous post also makes a lot of sense and will incorporate.

My next question is on Pitchers. I'm still trying to figure out how to rate them.

In the dead ball era through the 60s most teams went with a 4 man rotation....Pud Galvin in the year he had 20.5 WAR started 72 games.

I've divided the WAR by batters faced and it looks better....just not sure if its right or not either.

By that metric, Pedro and Maddux have the best two seasons. But then I have Marvin Freeman having better a better season than Koufax, Seaver Matthewson ever had. In Koufax case, quite significantly. That doesn't sit right with me.

So the tweaking continues. I'm open to suggestions if you're willing.

Re: Brady Anderson

This is what I come up with on Freeman using his 1994 season
potential 83
durability 92
stamina 83
h/9 59
k/9 64
bb/9 93
hr/9 47
clutch 80

4 sm velo 54 /control 83/ break 50

slider control 65 /break 70

splitter control 60 /break 65

curve control 55 /break 60

changeup control 50 /break 55

speed 34
arm 56
acc 42
reaction 48
field 47

His overall is 83

I didnt bother looking at his hiiting, it shouldnt really affect his overall .
I'm sure Koufax and Seaver would come out way better . I dont know about Christy since I can't currently do players pre-1954

Re: Brady Anderson

SC can I ask you where you got Shoeless Joe's contact ratings?? He had the third highest batting average ever?

I don't have a good answer for that. My best guess is that he was in the initial batch I imported, his overall looked good, and I did not alter it at all. I can tell since his throwing accuracy is over 70, which I thought I had adjusted for all OFers to be under 70.

In the overhaul, his ratings will be based on his 1912 season where he batted .395 and his ratings will reflect as such, once I have a system in place.

As of right now, I'm still at the data stage. I've gathered every players season with WAR of 1 or more, dedupped to keep their highest WAR season for position players and separated into teams. I'm not 100% content with the breakdown, especially for the expansion teams, so tweaking continues.

For pitchers, I'm still trying to figure out a better system to break them down by.

For the first release, I want to have at least a 40 man roster for every team. Current roster is over 1300 players, so its just a matter of redistributing to proper team and altering their attributes. My hope is to have this done by October.

The grand plan is to have a 90 man for every team, but I honestly don't see that being completed until next years version.
