And one more thing on the ± of PB value.

Posted By KenG

This is a continuation from my previous message, placed in a different spot.

I had mentioned tolerances as ± , they actually weren't that.

The tolerances were; 2.5% for hitters was actually 2.5% on the plus side, while the 4% for pitchers was 4% on the minus side.

So I'll looking again at an 85 PB team (right around average).

50 PB might make up the hitters, 35 PB the pitchers.

We might actually end up with 50 + 1.5 and 35 - 1.4 giving us 85 + .1, or the equivalent of a variance of .001

The PB value needs minor tweaking, I agree, for some individual players, but with the distrabution of players over 20 teams, you might see one owner luck into an extra 2 PB points, but since its more than likely that owner wasn't even near the cap(only 10-15% of teams were) we are talking about a very low probability.
