Marcum pitched for Cleveland IRL in 2015. He has stats for Toronto first in his neutered stats to fill the gap so to speak and then his Cleveland stats are listed (they've been neutered somewhat as well, by adding 40.0 IP to the total along [bringing it to 75.0 IP] with Marcumish stats for those 40.0 IP). He also had gaps in 2009 and 2014 which are filled in with Toronto stats. Nothing we can do about that as he missed the entire season those two years, so it's good that he has stats to fill them in regardless of where he pitches (I assume the team field must be filled in otherwise the guy would be a free agent).
Basically the gap stats he's using for 2009, 2014, and 2015 are exactly 1/2 his totals from his 2008 season with Toronto (W, L, G, GS, IP, HA, ER, HR, BB, and K), and I guess that's why he winds up on Toronto in 2009, 2014, and 2015. My contention was that maybe the 2015 stats could all come from Cleveland as that's where he actually pitched, but I realize that could get confusing on your end, and I don't want that either. I guess if someone starts a straight historical in 2015, it's up to them to put the players where they should be, and I'd rather have the players with quality neutralized stats (as they have now) then have the players on the right teams (if that's the choice that must be made: and I'm seeing that it might be given the gymnastics you would have to go through on your end to get team placements right).
Sorry if this is rambling. Obviously, I don't know how it is to be on your end of things. You know what is possible and what is not, and how the team field should be filled in, so I guess I'm a bit out of my depth here.
On a positive note Neutralized Batting Stats look great, which is a big plus, so once the correct Neutered Fielding Stats (Innings Played) are in the next update, 2015 should be all fixed up and raring to go. Thank you very much for that.
EDIT: By the way pitcher Tony Zych is still listed as a DH in 17.4.36 because his real fielding stats list his position as DH and he has no neutralized stats. Thanks.
