Did they make a mistake with Ohtani's hitting card? It seems like his OB chances vs. RHP in particular should be much higher.

I see the problem, their graph is way off. I wonder how many other cards or graphs have mistakes.

Looks like you figured out they put his pitcher's card there?

I think Michael Brantley is priced too high, especially considering how many similar players are priced lower...

It is a little off topic but I am disappointed again that Jason Kipnis has been dropped to a 4 at 2B.

I think JD-Mart is a bargain since he has been rated 4(-1). I would have rated him 5(+2). I'll buy :)

I was comparing M. Chapman's and Jose Ramirez' offensive stats and couldn't see why Ramirez cost $2.03M more than Chapman. As it turns out the little things add up.

Hits/OB/TB
Chapman - vs. LHP - 28/41/41 2 BPHR's
vs. RHP - 23/34/48 7 BPHR's

Ramirez - vs. LHP - 23/33/44 3 BPHR's
vs. RHP - 15/41/41 8 BPHR's

Chapman is the better offensive player by a bit. Then I started looking at other parts of their cards and can now see why there is a price difference.

Ramirez is a switch hitter. Stole 34 bases vs. 1 for Chapman. 10 fewer errors at 3rd. He's a 680 guys vs. Chapman's 600+.
Clutch is -2 vs. -5. 0 DP's vs. Chapman's 17. Ramirez has 2nd base eligibility. Not that you would play him there.

Subtract Chapman's advantage at the plate from Ramirez' intangibles and whaddya get? $2.03M

I'm not someone who knows much about this, but I frown on normal Homerun chances (2-10 roll) becoming BP HR chances.

Trout, including HBP has over 600 plate appearances yet has a 2 inj rating. Always thought the standard for a 1 inj rating was 600 PA's. I know a few years ago Bonds also had a 2 inj rating, but was still only subject to a 3 game max injury.

From what I understand HBP and Intentional Walks don't count as PA's in Strat. As a 2 injury I cant explain that
The msaegse is waht mttares msot!
