IRL a ML quality pitcher can be around a 4.60-5.00 ERA (especially as a starter) but that still lands guys with a 20-21 rating a lot of the time in the game (whereas an average hitter in the game can get a 30-35 rating).

Feldman's a great example, his ratings project a 4.83 ERA as a starter but that only equals a 20 rating (or the same as any other horrible AAA starter out there).

Haven't done that much work on defense besides positions. If anyone knows anywhere to find defensive scouting reports or some sort of stats that could translate well I'd be glad to use them.
