I inquired about this on the main board but maybe this is a better spot considering what it relates to. I know it doesn't mean much in terms of outcomes and it's more cosmetic but it seems weird to me that a lot of pitchers' best pitches are no longer elite in the historical db.

Valenzuela has a screwball potential of 75 in '26 but in '27 it's average, well worse than guys like Mike Scott. I realize it's not going to effect stuff negatively if the sum of the parts is the same but it just seems weird and it seemed correct in previous versions.

Did something change w/r/t the historical db in this regard? I'm noticing it with many historical pitchers in this version and '26 (and before) seemed much more aligned with history for this. It's more of an immersion thing for me I suppose. Like Fernando w/o an elite screwball (scouting notes mention his signature pitch is a curveball), Nolan Ryan without an elite fastball, even if it doesn't really matter, just doesn't seem right. I started going through and manually shifting those values around but it's a lot of work lol.

Thanks!
