I think the only formula he has given out was the new prospect ranking. Edit: There are no strict "throwing errors" in the game right now other than catchers trying to throw out runners that much I can answer. Updated Saturday, July 11 2015 @ 12:24:59 pm PDT

The reason for this is because throwing errors aren't calculated differently from fielding errors in the game. Personally I don't like how its implemented, but the majority of folks seemed to prefer this over no penalty. Updated Saturday, July 11 2015 @ 1:52:13 pm PDT
