Defense confuses the hell out of me in this game.
I have highly rated defenders all over the field but almost dead last in efficiency and ZR.

Now it makes sense... Couldn't figure out why my SS with around 100 error rating kept making so many damn errors.TheGobOne wrote: ↑Tue Nov 23, 2021 5:45 pmSS in our league will make 30% more errors than default.

LOL.... That's why his ass had to go to second base. Word on the street Keene is looking to come hit behind Wolfe!Cnasty wrote: ↑Tue Nov 23, 2021 6:08 pmTell him to stop wearing his championship rings on the field as they are getting in the way.SmittyRocks7 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 23, 2021 6:03 pm

Re: 2086 Season Thread - 4 out of 6 dentists recommend Bowie Championship Brand
agree! I've had the same team the last 3 years and I've been middle of the road, near last and then near first the last 3 years.



Re: 2086 Season Thread - 4 out of 6 dentists recommend Bowie Championship Brand

These are our Position Modifiers currently. I have no clue who set them up or if they are based on a certain year (I doubt it) but they are definitely janky in some spots. And I lied. It's actually 1.5 rating so our SS will make 50% MORE errors than default. Something I think we should for sure discuss during offseason as obviously, changing defensive metrics will lower runs scored.
Re: 2086 Season Thread - 4 out of 6 dentists recommend Bowie Championship Brand
These are our other non-hitting modifiers posted with the defaults. Needless to say someone hated catchers when they set this up lol.

Why not default it to 1.000 across the board?!? That keeps every position on equal footing and doesn't favor one position over another in terms of defense

Re: 2086 Season Thread - 4 out of 6 dentists recommend Bowie Championship Brand
We all should be made aware of all these behind the scenes numbers so we all have the same insight as the commissioners to build our teams. These behind the scene numbers gives an advantage that all of us are not privy to



Re: 2086 Season Thread - 4 out of 6 dentists recommend Bowie Championship Brand
Right, I didn't choose any of those numbers. That's what they were set to when I looked. I 100% would love to set them to 1.000 as that makes the most sense. I'm not going to do it mid-season though but this will 100% be a Winter Meeting topic.GeorgesGoons wrote: ↑Tue Nov 23, 2021 9:09 pm Why not default it to 1.000 across the board?!?

But default isn't 1.0 across the board...

How is it not? Pure ignorance asking this question



Re: 2086 Season Thread - 4 out of 6 dentists recommend Bowie Championship Brand
I never touched or paid attention to those defensive modifiers so not sure where they started or change as you port to a new version but I would not just set everything to 1.0. Those things are touchy. I think Ryan should just gradually change the extreme ones like SS errors by going to 1.4 and seeing how it goes then 1.3 and 1.25 and do that season by season and you will get to a place you like it. Changing them all to 1.0 will be an extreme change to things
Re: 2086 Season Thread - 4 out of 6 dentists recommend Bowie Championship Brand
Ya they could have evolved over time by the game settings as that's an option. Will post something in the offseason about biting the bullet and putting them all to default or moving them something like 25%/33% a year until they get to default.wdoupis wrote: ↑Tue Nov 23, 2021 10:54 pm I never touched or paid attention to those defensive modifiers so not sure where they started or change as you port to a new version but I would not just set everything to 1.0.

I think everything that is "behind the scenes" should be brought to light for everyone else to know. This could be viewed as an advantage of the commissioners if they know the defensive metrics of position players or the pitching ability of starters
