OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Are there any improvements to the feeder system?

I've been playing stats only since OOTP 12 with feeders. I pay no attention to them aside from the stat leaders until the draft pool is created. While it is fair to say that players who dominate in feeder league play don't necessarily make it to the Majors they are much more likely to. I've found in my OOTP15 league that OPS & WHIP are the key stats for batters and pitchers respectively. The AI seems to focus on players that lead in those categories also.

But as much as I find them indispensable I'd love to not need to use feeders. For all the reason Markus and others have pointed out. The one thing I'm leery of is the stats on the game-created draft pool players. Are they supposed to be career stats or pre-draft season stats? Does anyone here know?
