Some time ago I recall there was some discussion somewhere on these boards (can't find it now) with regard to imported 6.5 leagues being dominated by pitching. I was wondering what the status of this is. Is it still an issue for anyone? Has it been identified as a bug to be fixed? What, if anything, can be done about it? My preferred method of play right now is to import my 2005 career league from 6.5 as I am not a huge fan of fictional leagues. However, I'm running into this pitching dominance issue and it's so drastic as to be difficult to ignore. Lots of shutouts, low league batting averages (approx .240), low league ERAs (approx 3.50). I've done this import several times and frequently my team (Florida) has trouble breaking the Mendoza Line after April. The Marlins have never been a scoring powerhouse, but a team average in the neighborhood of .190 - .230 is a little low even for them. I should point out that this is all after applying the first patch and I haven't made any changes to the PCM;s, MLE's, or league totals, since I really don't know a lot about that stuff. In the past, I just left those things alone, and the stats worked out ok. If anybody knows what the status of this is, could you please post? Thanks.
