Player import stats problem

MrAlphabet · 06-27-2002, 02:09 PM

I've noticed if you import player stats for a season, if they played for two teams during a season their stats are doubled. For instance in my league the ORB, in Dick Tidrow's career stats he was traded twice during the season before, and in both instances his stats were doubled (1979 and 1974):

YEAR ERA W L S G CG SHO IP ER BB K TEAMS
1972 2.77 14 15 0 39 10 3 237.0 73 70 123 CLE
1973 4.43 14 16 0 42 13 2 274.0 135 95 138 CLE
1974 4.18 24 24 2 74 10 0 418.0 194 132 216 CLE,NYY,TOT
1975 3.13 6 3 5 37 0 0 69.0 24 31 38 NYY
1976 2.64 4 5 10 47 0 0 92.0 27 24 65 NYY
1977 3.16 11 4 5 49 0 0 151.0 53 41 83 NYY
1978 3.84 7 11 0 31 4 0 185.0 79 53 73 NYY
1979 3.69 26 12 12 154 0 0 249.0 102 92 150 CHC,NYY,TOT
1980 2.79 6 5 6 84 0 0 116.0 36 53 97 CHC
1981 5.11 3 10 9 51 0 0 74.0 42 30 39 CHC

This can really inflate a players lifetime stats and if he had bad seasons and was traded that can really drag down his lifetime average or ERA.

Not to mention 154 games played in one season is a bit unrealistic.

This is a known issue, thanks for letting us know of the problem.

I'm glad to hear that this is known, because I had a similar problem with NNY Mike Torrez in 1978 showing 70 games started!!!

It's an issue with the DB.

This issue was corrected by the various revised DB's.

Try using this one:

Its the one with my name on it.

Ankit also has a revised DB out there but I don't know the link off hand.

Hope this helps.
