Expect Renfroe to be an additional or to be unleashed...Trout hits the top 10 even vs lhp!!

Top 15 cards vs rhp...a lot of players with few at-bats

Anyone have a handle on the unleashed?

Thanks for the heads up! I'm surprised they didn't mention this when they put out the email with the card ordering date.

So, a big change, they added the injury factor this year, BUT still haven't added the Ab+BB calc. We need to bug them on this one. If you agree with me, please send an email to: customerservice@strat-o-matic.com

Here is what I said in case you want a jump start on the email:

Thanks very much for adding the injury factor to this year's data disk. It is a GREAT addition, now if you can just add AB+BB to the file it will be mostly complete! We need this data to be able to make our final determinations for the on-line game. As you know how long someone can be injured depends on this calculation!

Top hitters (all players with salaries estimated at 7M or more)...lot of second basemen!!!

WARP= wins above replacement player (adjusted for neutral stadiium, 80M league)
Pos is the position the player will have its best value (not necessarily the top position of his card)
My est salary: Salaries as my ratings would have it...but my ratings differ somewhat from TSN...by the way this was done without knowing who is injury-prone to only 3 games or 15 games, so these values are likely to change. Also, I haven't analyzed the pitching, and this could affect the value of some hitters (eg. left-handed hitters could benefit from a little bump).

Hitters_name ….. pos ….. WARP ….. My estimated salary
Renfroe….. DH ….. 8,11 ….. 11,66...most probably an additional or an unleashed player
Trout,M ….. cf ….. 7,98 ….. 11,51
Lemahieu,D ….. 2b ….. 6,22 ….. 9,55
Cano,R*.... ….. 2b ….. 6,19 ….. 9,53
Freeman,F* ….. 1b ….. 5,62 ….. 8,89
Altuve,J ….. 2b ….. 5,52 ….. 8,78
Goldschmid ….. 1b ….. 5,40 ….. 8,65
Segura,J ….. 2b ….. 5,35 ….. 8,59
Betts,M ….. rf ….. 5,28 ….. 8,52
Rizzo,A* ….. 1b ….. 5,24 ….. 8,47
Votto,J* ….. 1b ….. 5,00 ….. 8,20
Donaldson, ….. 3b ….. 4,95 ….. 8,14
Sanchez,G ….. c- ….. 4,91 ….. 8,10
Ortiz,D* ….. DH ….. 4,87 ….. 8,06
Murphy,D* ….. 2b ….. 4,78 ….. 7,95
Dozier,B ….. 2b ….. 4,70 ….. 7,88
Bryant,K ….. lf ….. 4,50 ….. 7,65
Kinsler,I ….. 2b ….. 4,45 ….. 7,62
Bradley Jr ….. cf ….. 4,40 ….. 7,54
Turner,T ….. cf ….. 4,16 ….. 7,27
Yelich,C* ….. lf ….. 4,05 ….. 7,15
Arenado,N ….. 3b ….. 4,03 ….. 7,12
Machado,M ….. 3b ….. 3,94 ….. 7,05
Lindor,F+ ….. ss ….. 3,87 ….. 7,00

I'm going to assume Hunter Renfroe will be Unleashed this season.

His card will be obscene.
