I may have sold this program a little short, now that I think about it. In my haste to go to sleep while posting this, I neglected to mention that it's better than the OOTP 9 TeamRater, because it includes more weights, and more categories.

There are about 80 categories your team gets rated on. Everything from starting pitching stuff to bench power.

Also, the previous version of TeamRater took a few liberties in figuring out who was in your lineup vs. who was on your bench. There's no way from the .csv files to tell, so before I just took the highest 8 ratings from each category and used those as the lineup. That would mean that if you had a bench guy who was low contact, eye, gap, and avoid k's, but had awesome power, his power rating could be part of the lineup. This is no longer the case in this version. Instead, I take the average of all of the ratings for each batter on the team, then take the top 8 batters and split their ratings up. So it's not 100% foolproof, because maybe you're playing someone in your lineup whose average ratings are lower than someone on your bench. But I can't help that.
