I am not 100% sure what exactly were you asking. Well, I think you were asking how the utility works in general and I will try to answer that.

Basically, what this utility does is to create rating to stats mapping from the CSV files (from CommishJoe's Exporter) and the stats projection is calculated from that mapping information (by regression method). All you need to do is to input the unique in-game OOTP player ID and the utility will grab all the necessary info (eg. ratings) for you. In other words, you don't need to manually enter any rating at all. Also, the stats projection is based on league average competition, league average park factor, league average defense and etc. Hopefully, this answers your question. Anyway, the more detailed information is thoroughly provided in the included manual.

Please don't hesitate to ask any other questions, if you have any. I will try to answer the questions to the best of my ability.
