Player Cards
Quick Start Guide
1) Draft any player, of any season, throughout recorded
baseball history: 1871 to present. You may also choose one
of a handful of select Negro League players listed
here.
2) Drafting is done "live" over the course of 2-3 weeks.
Use this
Google Docs Draft Tool to post.
3) 28 Players need to be selected, they can be any mix of
batters and pitchers.
4) Simulation results are based upon the players real
life stats AND the era in which they played in. 40 HR in 2006 (NL
Avg ERA was 4.49) is not as impressive as 40 HR in 1968 (NL Avg ERA was
3.43). Bear this in mind, and this file of
average stats by year will help.
5) And don't forget stadiums matter too. Don't
expect Colorado's Todd Helton to be a batting powerhouse if you play him
Comerica park.
6) Weekly
lineup form
Here is a list of all files that will be useful to you.
And please read the Rules and Draft Day pages for a complete rundown of
how it all works.
-
Eligible Batters
and Pitchers - The raw data files of all
eligible players. Includes stats, Park Factors, and League era
information.
-
Eras - File of league batting and pitching
averages for every year in baseball history.
-
Batter and
Pitcher Ratings- actual ratings of
all batters used in ATB history.
-
Negro League Results
- Results of simulations for the selected NL'ers. See the
rules page for more on this.
-
Ballparks - The DMB community
is awesome. Someone created an application to read the
ballpark files DMB uses. I can now export all 2180 parks with
full data as to Park Factors, Weather, Fence Height, Dimensions,
etc. Use this file to select your park.
-
ATB XIII Batting
and Pitching Registers - Here's how
each player faired in last season's simulation. Please
remember this is just a sample of 1 season worth of data and results
will almost assuredly fluctuate significantly in ATB XII Use it
as a guide, but be warned.
-
100 Sim Results Page
- in the offseason, we baselined some of the most often drafted
players by running them through 100 seasons of simulation and
compiling the data.
