Index of All Improved Statis-Pro Batter Cards (8 are Rays)

You can click here for a list of all MLB batters and pitchers this year with stats. If they are GREEN you adjust in their favor (in Statis-Pro adjust PB down one for improved batter, and up one for improved pitcher). If they are RED on that sheet then they have not played as well as projected (in Statis-Pro do the reverse, lower PB by 1 for pitchers and for a struggling batter increase the PB against him).

The following is a list of all Statis-Pro Batters who have improved dramatically above their projected cards, or drop significantly below. A batter who has improve 80 points or more on the projected OPS on his card is included, but also added are players who did not have a card but projected to have a Home Run range of at least 27-31 after ball park adjustment. 

A small + sign indicates the player is upgraded and you can lower the opposing pitcher's PB by 1 any time he comes to bat. A small - by the name means he is not hitting as well as project, and you should increase the opposing pitcher's PB by 1 when he comes to bat.

Not surprisingly, if you look at the table beneath all the adjusted players, the Tampa Bay Rays are by far the most improved with eight improved players and noone playing worse than their card. The next three are pretty close, with Pittsburgh a +5 (7 improved, 2 dropped off), Texas a +5 (only improved players) and Atlanta a +4 (5 improved, 1 dropped off). We list what their OPS should be based on their card and what their actual OPS is this season. All batters and pitchers to have played this year with notes by which ones were adjusted are listed by team in this google sheet.

Cardinals Destroyed in Return to Statis-Pro, Then Return Favor vs. Mets

Justin Verlander and the New York Mets welcomed the St. Louis Cardinals back to Statis-Pro baseball with a 15-3 win in New York. However, the Cardinals returned the favor with a 11-6 win that also counted as a sweep to make the series 3 games to 3. 

The unprecedented scoring took the average runs scored from 4.12 through the first 54 games, to 4.29 after these two games.

Resurgence Cardinals Allowed Back from relegation - Face Verlander

 The St. Louis Cardinals are back in our Statis-Pro league.  They started so badly this season we dropped them from the 10 NL teams we originally picked to play through our Statis-Pro Baseball season and added the Pittsburgh Pirates after their start, but now we will keep both teams for an 11-team Statis-Pro NL season. A couple of notes:

1. Below are the teams we included in both our AL season (being played in Montana) and NL season (played in Milwaukee). To check on where teams rank and make these decisions, we run the following calculation - we weigh this year's record and run differential twice, then last year's same two factors twice, and then calculate them all together and rank teams. None of the other nine relegated teams in the two Statis-Pro leagues were in the top seven in their respective league, but the Cardinals recent 13-5 mark put them back up to No. 5 in the NL, so we added them back in with the other green teams.

2. Below that image is the setup for their first game back against the Mets. The five players in the upper left are pretty good St. Louis cards that are not on the current roster so are currently not used in the game.

3. The next image is the list of current players we went from and we have marked if each player for the Cardinals, as well as for the Dodgers and Braves who had not yet been checked, had an existing card or needed a replacement card in addition to those like the five in #2 above that were dropped because they were not on the list. 

4. Only two new cards were added from checking the three teams against current rosters. Kevin Pillar is not on the Braves roster, and the next image shows his card being printed from page 107 of this set of Batters' cards. The other player is the Dodgers lefty Victor Gonzalez, who did not have a card so we looked up his Zips projected ERA (ERA 4.06) and made up a standard card by adding his name and that he is left handed and only a relief pitcher (thus SR/RR: 0/4).  He is now on page 46 of the Statis-Pro pitcher cards. Now we are ready to play!




Her is the process ... Developing.
