Hello BirdWatcher,

an interesting explanation for the eff value. i had not thought of it that way. But of course, how do you determine the eff for a catcher? it's certainly easier with an RF.

you said that the infield error value would not play a role in the Errors. I would directly agree with you, but the game would have the value (the value can also be seen under ratings). so the game could use this to calculate the erros of the catcher.

in my test league (2 teams, completely identical teams) i only changed the values of one catcher and gave him an infield error rating of 250. the other catcher had a rating of 0.
Result: The errors over 324 games were about the same, about 15. this means that only the two catcher ratings are used to calculate the errors. The infield error really doesn't matter.
