Another way to pass the time - Drafting

[Chuckgnh1]

Hi,

We're talking two teams, AL and NL?

I love that idea, if we're going there. Hope we can get it going - and can we get enough competitors to keep HAL out? That would be preferable, IMHO!

If you want in, please PM me your email address

I sent you my e-mail address.

My two cents: I am cool with all your rules. Rosters should be no smaller than 25, the bigger the better as far as I am concerned. 28 would be even better still... Thanks.

Thanks for the roster spreadsheet, Rob.

Now, can you interpret some of the column headings for us CD-newbies?

Batting
R. LEFT%
Y. SUPPLEMENTAL - STEAL
AL. CIAv
AM. DP (# as fielder?)

Thanks!

[tcochran]

Also, can you post the ballpark ratings?

Thanks!

[b:1e4cc9afba]LEFT [/b:1e4cc9afba]% - Percentage of ABs vs LH Pitchers for Batters, Percentage of LH Batters faced for Pitchers


[b:1e4cc9afba]SUPPLEMENTAL - STEAL[/b:1e4cc9afba] - " * 78% 22% (15-8) "
78% = Percent that the runner will get a good lead
22% = Percent that he will be picked off or caught stealing immediately, no roll of the dice for the 15-8 numbers.

Assuming Good/Bad lead and not immediately out.
15 = 20 sided dice roll for safely stolen base if the runner got a good lead, 15 or less means safe
8 = 20 sided dice roll for safely stolen base if the runner got a good lead, 8 or less means safe

Keep in mind that the 15 and 8 are modified by the Pitchers hold rating and the catchers Arm.


[b:1e4cc9afba]CLAv[/b:1e4cc9afba] - The batter's CLUTCH batting average (runners on 2nd or 3rd with 2 outs). These are the results on the card with the "$". The "$" turns on OUT result into a Single**, and turns a HIT result into an out (popout I think).

[b:1e4cc9afba]DP[/b:1e4cc9afba] - Number of GBa (DP chances) on a batters card. For a % of DPs a batter will hit into, divide by 216.


All of the above are in play in the TSN/SOM online game as well!
