Haverhill Halflings
III.1

Broken Bat Baseball
I don't think its even the top 20. I have a few guys with REALLY low averages on the board. Also noticed some guys are just straight out wrong. Zhang (11686 ABs) was listed as .311, but he was actually only hit .280. At least in league games. I doubt it changes that much for all official games. So that stat board just seems to be completely bugged.

I just want to take a minute to give one final salute for my closer Mateo Solis's effort in 2059.

Not only did he dominate cup play leading to a cup win, but his last Save of the regular season was his 638th which makes him #2 on the all time Save list!

He needs another 127 to make it to #1 overall, which is very doubtful at 39 years old and the wheels clearly falling off. However, to paraphrase world renowned racecar driver Ricky Bobby: "With the advancements in modern medicine and my high level of income, who knows?!?"

Zhang was listed as .311

Those stats will only reflect what was accomplished with your club. .311 looks correct for what Zhang did in Haverhill. His work for Homestead doesn't count.

I'm not sure he made it to 3000 ABs with Haverhill tho. I think the AB requirement is what causes the most noise.

Eg., on Waterloo's list:
#9 Tate, .277 (3300 ABs)
#10 Huffman, .292 (2900 ABs)
#11 Hall, .320 (2600 ABs)
#12 Pennington, .274 (4100 ABs).

Why the algorithm decided to slot Huffman and Hall in between these 2 is mysterious.

I get earlier in BB history it was hard finding guys with 3000 ABs. Not so now. Maybe the algorithm should be changed to make 3000 a hard minimum now.

Edit: I missed Hall initially. :)

If .311 is correct, then he should be on the top of the board. It makes no sense for these players to be listed not in order. Really the .311 probably shouldn't be the number listed. What if the player hit a career .380 AVG, but after you picked him up as a 34 year old he had two seasons of .270 ball? Does he even show on the list? The list is quite disjointed right now. Does it want to be a list of player career numbers? Or team performance numbers? Needs to choose one and stay with it.

It's the AB problem I mentioned. Zhang has 2757 ABs with Haverhill - below the 3000 minimum for the list. So he got slotted between 2 guys who had 3000+ ABs that are in numerical order.

I don't quite follow your example. Is this what you are saying?
Team A: 15 seasons, .380
Team B: 2 seasons, .270

If so, he should be on Team A's list, but not Team B's list.

I think it works the way it should. BA shouldn't function differently from the counting stats like hits and HRs. And it wouldn't make sense to use counting stats accumulated with a different team for your team totals.

In different news: I would just like to congratulate my team for getting nearly half-way through the season, with a new manager who ain't hood at pitchers, and still sit with a team ERA of 3,01 and a BAA of .211.

Nice work gang.

Shame that we're still the second-lowest scoring team in the league, but hey, who needs offense, I guess.

Anibal Ortiz struck out the first four batters of the game on 12 pitches last night. That was fun!

Found this guy for one claim on waivers 2 years ago. Thought he could be a solid backup 1B before later realizing he could fill my need at 3b. Went up to 13 potential the year after I picked him up and Bowie looks to become a solid 3b in our system.
