BATTERS: Dramatically improved and new Statis-Pro Batter Cards Listed by Team

Click here for the list of updated pitchers' cards from the previous blog.

As they battle for the MVP award in real baseball, two home run numbers were added to the Statis-Pro cards of both Shohei Ohtani (now 24-33 is a home run) and Vlad Guerrero Jr. (now 28-27 is a home run).

These are among the 102 updates to Statis-Pro batters cards from among the 2021 projected cards you can get by clicking here. To determine which batter cards should be updated, we matched batter's current ERA (adjusted slightly for ballpark) against the Ballpark Neutral OPS resulting from the projected stats used to create their 2021 projected cards. 

When playing the Statis-Pro baseball game, if you would like to update those cards to more accurately reflect this season's stats, then look down the teams you are playing in alphabetical order and adjust his Home Run range accordingly, by leaving the rest of the card the same except for changing the Home Run range. If the Home Run range is made smaller, then move the DEEP numbers down to the next number or numbers after the HR, and then the strikeout range begins. If the Home Run range gets larger, then move the DEEP numbers up and then start the strikeout range.

In addition, we noted seven other strong new batters that did not have a card. You can always make a new batter's card based on their OPS. If you do this the player gets a standard card with singles on 11-17, doubles on 18-24, a triple on 25 and then home runs starting with a 26. If a player's OPS is closest to .550, his only home run number is a 26. If .600 he hits a homer on 26-27, if .650 then 26-28, if .700 then 26-31 and then keep adding one more home run number for every .050 OPS higher than .700. The rest of his card includes one DEEP number one higher than the top Home Run number, then strikeouts up to 48, a Walk from 51-54, Hit by Pitch on 55 and out on 56-88.

However, in the case of the seven new players below, we also calculated the batter cards for the seven new players below.

In most cases with new cards assume an E5 and OBR/SP of C/D, but we noted a couple of new players below who are either an A/B or in one case an A/A. Here are the adjustments cards of players who are either much better or worse than their projected card, followed by what team you can go to in order to find the original 2021 projected card and what that card's home run range was.

PITCHERS: Dramatically improved and new Statis-Pro Pitcher Cards Listed by Team

For the first time since late May, we matched pitcher's current ERA (adjusted slightly for ballpark) against the Ballpark Neutral ERA used to create their 2021 projected cards. We did this in May, but since then most ERAs (and OPS we will use in the next blog) have levelled out toward the projections.

In most cases the pitcher's card you get when you click here is still relatively close to this year's performance. However, in the case of 54 player cards we found a starting pitcher's PB would be at least two better (or worse) than the projected card, or a relievers PB would be at least three better (or worse) than their projected card. 

When playing the Statis-Pro baseball game, if you would like to update those cards to more accurately reflect this season's stats, then look down the teams you are playing in alphabetical order and adjust his PB accordingly. For example, the first pitcher listed is Stefan Crichton, who players for Arizona and his PB should be adjusted to a PB: 2-5. The rest of the row reveals his player card from the link above was also with the Arizona cards, but it was a projected PB: 2-7. Continue to use the projected card, but note that he is now only in control on dice rolls (or fast action PB numbers) of 2-5, while the batter will be in control on rolls or PB on the card of 6-12.

We updated more cards in May, but if the card is no longer listed below then you should return to using the PB printed on the card..

In addition, we noted nine pitchers who did not have projected cards, but have put up excellent stats and now can be used with a PB: 2-8 and the standard new player cards while allows singles on 11-23, balks on 24, strikeouts on 25-41, walks on 42-48, WP on 51, CD-C on 52-54 and and out on 55-88. You can created a new card for any pitcher, using those same numbers and with an ERA closest to 2.50 (PB 2-9), closest to 3.00 (2-8), closest to 3.50 (2-7), closest to 4.00 (4-7), closest to 4.50 (2-6), closest to 5.00 (2-5) or if 5.26 or higher at 2-4.

Most of the new pitchers with PB 2-8 are relievers, however we listed the average innings pitched for the new pitchers to let you know how to long to use them in the game. You will not that Alek Manoah of the Blue Jays averages more than five innings, so gives a great PB: 2-8 starter to the team.

Brewers Rally After 2 Injuries to Stay 2 Aheqd of Dodgers

Cain and Vogelbach collided in the first inning of the first game to leave the Brewere short-handed for both games.

Mikolas threw 7 innings to lead the Cards to a 3-0 win in the first game as they stayed in the wild card position.

However the top of the shiffled Brewers line-up went 9 of 14 in the second game, led by Yelich 4 of 5 with a homer and double, for a 4-0 Brewers win in the second game to stay 2 games ahead of the Dodgers for 1st place in the Northwest Division.

Padres Add All-Star Statis-Pro Card at Philly (both teams add 2 players)

After a long lay off due to a ton of work, we finally were able to get back and resume our 12th NL series between teams. Both the Padres and Phillies have new players, and the Padres got the big boost with two players whose cards were improved when we updated based on OPS numbers through the first couple of months of the season.

All-Star Pirate Adam Frazier now has a 31-34 home run ranged to go along with his top defensive ratings at 2nd base, so steps into the No. 6 spot in the line-up. Meanwhile recently acquired Jake Marisnick is now a 25-33 home run range and batting second between Tatis and Machado.

The Phillies pickups of pitcher Kyle Gibson and shortstop Freddie Galvis are not as dominant cards, and actually do not break into the Statis-Pro starting line-up or 4-man rotation we use. The results of the two game series will appear below under the four new cards.

The results of the series will be added here.

Despite a killer top if the line-up and deepest pen in the NL Statis-pro league, two more short starts by both Snell and Lamet led to a 5-3 loss to the Phillies, then 13-4 sweep.
