Position Playrer Fatigue problem

khucke · 04-27-2018, 11:52 AM

Having simulated a 2018 MLB season I was astounded by the number of games played by position players:

Simulated 2018 season,

Players with more than 154 games : 66
159 games : 23

MLB 2017

Players with more than 154 games: 39
159 games: 8

The Position Player Fatigue rating is at Average (default), the Injury rating at High (Modern Day MLB).

I'm certain some tweaking is neccessary here.

A follow-up to my previous post:

I made another simulation run with the Position Player Fatigue rating set at HIGH.

Number of players with more than 159 games : 8
Number of players with more than 154 games : 44

These numbers are more in line with real life. So the HIGH setting seems to be the correct one for realistic modern-day results.

fwiw, i think related things were being tweaked for at least the last 2-3 patches... and may continue to affect what you are seeing.

leads to a rhetorical question -- this is on most recent update, correct?. a definite change in last patch would affect what you see in GS.

Yes , latest patch. Both the simulated numbers and the real-life MLB 2017 numbers are for Games not Games Started.

Thanks for this. I've often thought players were playing too much compared to their real-life counterparts but I've never done the research to prove it. Good to know my eyes weren't deceiving me.
