ATG9 - Usage Feature - The "10s"

There are 100 hitters at or above $1.00 mil who have a "10" score in usage in $80mil Stats History. This is a cool feature I'd like to say thank you to Strat for.

23 of those hitters are $6.00 mil or more:

There are 100 hitters at or above $1.00 mil who have a "10" score in usage in $80mil Stats History. This is a cool feature I'd like to say thank you to Strat for.

23 of those hitters are $6.00 mil or more:

So very historical/famous cards there just like our more budget cards.

Fascinating, I've used exactly none of these cards at $80

I don't know if I would put much stock in those reports, none of that looks too accurate. Typically it has been my experience that the only data strat can pull is the initial roster card, which is why you see cards like the 1927 Ruth popular (i.e. draft the low $ version, but use a different card once the season begins).

The only usage data that I trust as far as meaningful is parsing all of the final barnstormer rosters at the various salaries. At this point there is like 8 seasons of ATG9 data with 10 plus leagues each round, so enough data to get statistically accurate information. At one point I also started cross referencing team wins with each ending player on the roster, to see if any themes came from that.

I never did finish the project, but in the leagues, I pulled there were no surprises as to players that were on every roster, all of the platoons you would expect. Its data I hope to use if I can ever talk strat into ATG10.

I don't agree, it's trivial to pull data from final rosters. I can do it, and if I can do it, SOM can do it. And the cheap versions are not uniformly highly rated like they would be if the data came from draft cards. $0.69 Shano Collins is a 1 for example.

The opportunity cost for any one card has gotten so high. Just in like a $ sense, instead of one of these ~$7mil guys you could be playing one of 518 different $7+ mil hitters. Your comment is great and insightful, though. Maris, '98 Sosa, Yankees, random (cheap?) Pujols year shows the name-brand appeal needed to get to "10". I've always wanted to use '65 or all the Mays but pretty much never did.

I've thought about using very few of the pricey guys in ATG8/9 and really only at more advantageous price points. Kelley still being so popular surprises me but OBP just plays. Wagner, Ashburn and McGee at their cheaper prices obviously. Well wait, '20 Ruth is the destructinator of the set! I love him. That 1.214 OPS proves he's prett indomitable. $13.03 in ATG8 but I think I over-analyzed big price changers when we went from 8 to 9.

To my play style, this yet again shows how 90+% of guys just make too many outs to survive in ATG. Strat perfectly developed the season replay, delicately considering what is the "league-average" each card will play around. How they balance (price) scoring vs run prevention is more interesting and perhaps urgent in ATG than ever. Is that me just saying $80 mil is too high? Is $80mil more than it used to be? Or just seeming that way?

---Who are the best players included/not included? I think for pricey guys, Ruth, Mathews and Pudge are pretty good. I love me some Pujols but can't imagine using the '05 version...

I was glad to see so many enlightened picks with the cheapies. After they took Bobby Wallace away, Tony Fernandez has seemed like a crazy discount. It's tough, because despite whatever my comment about pricing above was about, EVERY cheaper guy is just so flawed. IF they survive in OBP, they are brutally toothless elsewhere like Roy Thomas or Jose Oquendo. **I gotta remember these are (muted?) averages. Most players will survive better under correct care and roster-building. ----> but for me, this always just meant ignoring 98% of the set

Who are the best players included/not included?

From the $6M+ list I'd say 27 Ruth and 61 Mantle are the best. Give me 60 Maris over 61 any day. Missing favorites include Edmonds (8), Dahlen (9), 25 Hornsby (9), 76 Morgan (4). I see my current favorite has literally never been used in an auto-league (it was in the most recent add).

Wow! Dahlen went down in price 1/3rd of a million! That at least temporarily answers my question about getting more for $80 mil. Even if some players have become better bargains over time, a discernnig manager will take advantage. The platoons are obviously a certain % of the conversation, but I am not the platoon guy for that.
