[quote:eaa9a2963e="latorrer"][quote:eaa9a2963e="tcochran"]Thanks for the roster spreadsheet, Rob.

Now, can you interpret some of the column headings for us CD-newbies?

Batting
R. LEFT%
Y. SUPPLEMENTAL - STEAL
AL. CIAv
AM. DP (# as fielder?)

Thanks![/quote:eaa9a2963e]

[b:eaa9a2963e]LEFT [/b:eaa9a2963e]% - Percentage of ABs vs LH Pitchers for Batters, Percentage of LH Batters faced for Pitchers


[b:eaa9a2963e]SUPPLEMENTAL - STEAL[/b:eaa9a2963e] - " * 78% 22% (15-8) "
78% = Percent that the runner will get a good lead
22% = Percent that he will be picked off or caught stealing immediately, no roll of the dice for the 15-8 numbers.

Assuming Good/Bad lead and not immediately out.
15 = 20 sided dice roll for safely stolen base if the runner got a good lead, 15 or less means safe
8 = 20 sided dice roll for safely stolen base if the runner got a good lead, 8 or less means safe

Keep in mind that the 15 and 8 are modified by the Pitchers hold rating and the catchers Arm.


[b:eaa9a2963e]CLAv[/b:eaa9a2963e] - The batter's CLUTCH batting average (runners on 2nd or 3rd with 2 outs). These are the results on the card with the "$". The "$" turns on OUT result into a Single**, and turns a HIT result into an out (popout I think).

[b:eaa9a2963e]DP[/b:eaa9a2963e] - Number of GBa (DP chances) on a batters card. For a % of DPs a batter will hit into, divide by 216.


All of the above are in play in the TSN/SOM online game as well![/quote:eaa9a2963e]


OK, got it. I'm familiar with how the factors work; just was not sure how to decode the cryptic titles in the spreadsheet header.

I'll give it a shot if it's still open. I'll send you a pm...

I'm up for it. Just let me know how to proceed.

was our final ruling to have NO DH? I don't remember seeing this finalized.

thanks,

Paul

This is exciting although I'm a little confused. Let me know if I am understanding this correctly.

1. we have a 2 round draft
2. In the draft we are actually picking MLB teams from 1977
3. After we have selected our 2 teams in the draft we comprise a 30 man roster of eligible players based on the set standards in the original post
4. we submit lineups and such

Is that correct?

My bad.

NO DH, Pitchers hit!
