Again, I am not sure if this is even worth changing or if it will have an effect on the playing the game, but it is just something that I noticed.

For a ratings discussion, I think Scott Kazmir may be underrated. He is currently at 26 overall and while I realize ratings are based on PECOTA projections, I cannot find any of these without paying for access, so I recalculated his ratings based on 2 different methods.

The first method was to take his stats from 2013 and 2014 as well as his first start of 2015 and calculate his ratings based on that. That gave me: 66 BB, 23 HRA, 223 K with a 69 overall rating.

Then I used the Steamer projections from FanGraphs and his numbers came to: 65 BB, 24 HRA, 203 K with a 57 overall rating.

In each situation, he moved up from the #4 starter to the #2 starter in the Oakland rotation. I realize he is #3 in real life, but his initial 26 and ERA above 4 as a result when viewing in the editor, seemed high and more like his 2009-2010 seasons. I will be using the 2013-2015 numbers for my own season, but I thought I would point this out for others - at the very least his Steamer projections could be used instead.

The Hechavarria thing is weird. Don't know how we are so off on his height/weight. I don't think it will help or hurt him in game, but it needs to be correct for well correctness sake

I'll look into Kazmir
