Actual over Imagined... Here's why.

PostSat Mar 13, 2021 8:30 am

I will take the actual set, and here is why, the Imagined set is not very imaginative. First, the players fielding ratings aren't normalized, or imaginative at all THEY ARE EXACTLY THE SAME.And that is not a good thing, in fact it is kind of awful.

Secondly, it's not like anyone has a great card, they are just very similar to their real card, with the exception of the few that over performed or under performed by a lot.

And no one gets an AMAZING card, because the extremes have been stunted.

The only advantage I see in the "FAKE SET" is more viable bench players with less complete garbage cards. Therefore perhaps THIS is the set to play if you must join a 24 team league.

What do you think?

i am not very enthusiastic about the imagined set from what i have reviewed. maybe because it is new or i am looking through some weird lens, but there are some rally overpriced cards that do not look very productive

I agree, their pricing is abysmal.

There's just nothing imaginative about the Imagined Set. The absurd 60 game season fielding ratings are EXACTLY THE SAME . Bradley Zimmer is an E22. WTF?

Question

Previously, unleashed sets would have additional players in leau of the core set. Is the 2020 imagined set similar to unleashed with additional players or is the entire set completely different than the actual set? (I am debating if I want to take the time to scrub two different databases if they are completely different.)

Actual Jack Flaherty:

Name Add Team T End. W L S IP H ER BB SO HR Hold BkR WpR Bat ERA WHIP Inj* BAL Salary
Flaherty, Jack STL '20 R S5 4 3 0 40.1 33 22 16 49 6 -2 0 5 1WR 4.91 1.22 1 5R .94M


Imagined Jack Flaherty:
Flaherty, Jack STL '20 R S5 12 8 0 123.0 101 55 42 145 17 -2 0 5 1WR 4.02 1.16 1 3R 4.43M

I'd say 4.43 million is a different pitcher than the .94million.....
