It seems that double weight of current years stats shouldn't have any impact in RD.

Hopefully we will soon get a definitive answer in the adjust hitter and pitcher numbers.
It is definitely good to test out a league before starting it in earnest.
For my random game 3 year double weight recalc, I am currently using 600/300 for adjust/weaken for batters and 80/40 for pitchers. 5 year recalc certainly has advantages, especially for career totals.
The way I test, create my league up to starting point. Backup League. Sim out 25 years or more. Check some of the better players to see if BA and HRs seem reasonable. Check better pitchers KO and walk rates. If they look good then just restore the back up and start your league. If I the stats don’t look right, restore the backup, modify the adjust/weaken settings and sim out 25 years again and check the stats.


Do you use one particular year for your stat modifiers or just use current year modifiers?
Anyway let us know what you come up with and your ideal setup.
