Well first, who is it you’re wanting to add? That changes my answer.

IIRC, Bobby Witt Jr. from the Royals is not listed at the moment right now. So he would be the one, i guess.

And while adjusting Bullpens, I noticed a few RPs, but just some low rated guys

Okay so I fixed Bobby Witt Jr.. so he’d should now pull correctly. The issue was MLB has him official name as Robert Witt lol.

As for other guys, if they haven’t debuted yet or don’t have a picture on MLB’s database I won’t have it in.

Hey JW, can you talk more about the pitching part, specifically the relievers?

I wonder if the tool can suggest how to organize the bullpen e.g. put reliever x in MRP1, reliver y in LRP1 etc.

Sure!

So this is more so based on my own personal formula for what I think makes a good RP.

First, it ignores HR/9 completely. Mainly because it’s ignored in game, and I play every game.

But my formula weights the different attributes by importance. K’s are highest, next is clutch, then H/9, then BB/9 I believe. Can’t remember off the top of my head how it weights them exactly, but that’s close.

I could probably add the logic to sort the pen by MRP, SU, Etc, but I’d need a refresher from you on the “optimal” way for the CPU to set their pen and I can try it out.
