Quick SOM Ratings question

[artie4121]

In the Pitcher's BP HR column on the Strat ratings Excel file, a number of cells have an asterisk along with a number. The number is the number of BP HR chances, but what is the asterisk? (It doesn't relate to BP singles, I know that.)

I can't find explanation in the Notes section.

Any thoughts?

No BP singles.

Thanks for your response, Palmtana, but as I stated there is some error with the ratings.

Here are all the pitchers that have an * in the BP column on the Strat Paid Ratings Excel Spreadsheet:

BP vs L

Ohlendorf, Ross< both
Axford, John< both
Guerra, Javy< both
Accardo, Jeremy < both
Hand, Brad no LH <
Burnett, Alex < both
Buchholz, Clay < both
Reynolds, Greg < both
Estrada, Marco no LH <
Miley, Wade < both
Hawkins, LaTroy < both
Garza, Matt < both
Vogelsong, Ryan < both
Sonnanstine, Andy < both
Purcey, David no RH <

BP vs R

Nolasco, Ricky < both
Kennedy, Ian < both
Miley, Wade < both
Bergesen, Brad < both
Furbush, Charlie < both
Capps, Matt < both
Guerra, Javy < both
Niese, Jonathon < both


In all but three of these cases, the pitchers ALL have 5 BP Single chances on each side of their card.

Has anyone noticed this, or called it to the attention of SOM?

Looking at the guys involved, most definitely seem to merit the lacking of ballpark singles, so it would seem that the error is in the cards that TSN shows. Maybe first order action is a question for Bernie.

When I look through the ratings spreadsheet I downloaded, I don't see a discrepancy on some of the pitchers that you mentioned. Guys like Kennedy don't have the * in the spreadsheet that I see and they do correctly have ballpark singles in the online game. I also checked a couple like Putz who I do see with a star in the spreadsheet and the online game shows them without ballpark singles.

In the 2011 spreasheet from SOM 53 pitchers have an * vs. RHH's. 53 vs. LHH"s. I checked the first 5 pitchers from your list above and none of them have an *. Did you do some kind of sort that through things off?

[artie4121]

Scratch this . . . I don't know WHAT the problem is in my Excel. I've been juggling columns, and probably screwed up.

Sorry Palmtana for contradicting you. . .

Not a problem. If your sheet is sorted beyond redemption you can always download the file from SOM again. Once purchased they offer unlimited downloads at up to 6 IP addresses.

My problem is that I like to combine the free file TSN gives here with the Strat sheet. It's a bittch creating.

Not so hard, just need to assign a column in both sets of spreadsheets to have a "lastname" + "," + "first initial", and then replace the TSN team abbreviations with the SOM ones.

Join on the new name column and team abbreviation in the two files, easy peezy, mac and cheesy, lemon squeezy...(sorry just channeled my 5 year old, been in Disney with her for a week LOL)
