Lowering League ERA

brewdog · 06-27-2009, 01:56 PM

ugh, Search feature isn't working so well for me atm. Could someone give me any ideas on how to lower the total league ERA in a hs feeder league. It's currently at about 7.30 (I feel like its too high). What would a good BABIP number look like, and would that be a good number to change to get the desired effect?

Adjust the league totals via league total modifiers. Do you have access to any high school stats? If so you can make some educated changes.

Post a screenshot of your feeder league totals. It's possible that something is out of whack.

I probably should collect some data on hs stats.
Thanks for the feedback.

I felt the need to dig this back up and post this screenshot for anyone interested. I had to tinker these number to taste over the course of several seasons and the results were likable for me, except for the HR leaders didn't seem to be as good as real life (Such as Matthew Hobgood had 20-something although he was drafted as a pitcher by the Orioles) Over the course of 13 seasons the leader in ERA ranged from a low of 0.96 to a high of 2.38 might I add that the season length was 40 games and the leader pitched 60-70 innings in a season. On the other side of the ball the leaders in batting average ranged from .434 to .539 although the HR leader averaged 10-15 homers per season I felt as if this was needed for balance
