Statis Pro Baseball Franchise All-Star Game

Description: Statis Pro Baseball Franchise All Stars, Expansion Era – New 4th Edition(Printed Version) Includes cardstock board, new FAC, Charts, rules and card set. IntroductionHere are the all-star teams for each of the 30 franchises playing today. Each team has 30 players, 17 position players and 13 pitchers as well as one ballpark card. 900 players.The original 16 franchises have players drawn from the years 1961-2017 with the exception of the Orioles (1954+), the A’s (1955+), the Braves (1966+) and the Dodgers and Giants (1958+.). All expansion teams have been selected from their entire history.Who is eligible?A position player is eligible in any season they qualified for the batting title (3.1 PA per G), including strike shortened seasons. The exception is catchers who are eligible in any season in which they appeared in 100 games. Starting pitchers are eligible for any season they qualified for the ERA title (1 IP per G), again, including strike shortened seasons. Relievers need to have 40 appearances. How are rosters selected?The first rule is that a player can only have one card, so Nolan Ryan has a card only with the Angles even though he would have been good enough to have cards both with the Astros and the Rangers. The players best season determines which team he is assigned.The best 9 starting players at each position (generally using WAR, OPS+) are chosen, the best remaining offensive season (the DH if you will), two backup catchers and at least one backup at every other position. For pitchers OPS+ (the best card) was given preference over more situationally dependent stats like Wins, ERA or WAR. Durability was a bonus for starters as was situational leverage (closer or late inning set-up man) for relievers. MVP an Cy Young Awards were generally not taken into account. How were the cards created?Most batter ratings are pretty straight forward. OBR is based on XB taken (avg 40%), Run scored pct. (avg 30%) with SB and 3b given a little weight. SP is (SBA*.67 ) per 200 times on first. AAA > 70, AA >50 A >30, B>20, C>10, D+>5, D>0. A “+” is given at SB% 85, 82, 80, 75, 66 (AAA-C) and a “-“ at 75, 70, 66, 60, <50. SAC, H&R and INJ are the same as the original Statis Pro. CD ratings vary by position but in general: 1 – poor, 2 – average, 3 – above average, 4 – Gold Glove caliber, 5 – all-time great season (usually 25+ runs saved). T2 is -3 runs or worse, T3 -2 to +1, T4 +2 to +4, and T5 is +5 or better. TA about 10% above league average for CS, TC about 10% worse. E ratings are same as original. Pitcher SR is similar to the original. RR is based on IP/G. <1 = 2 (closer=3), 1-1.5 = 3, 1.5-2 = 4, 2+ = 5. For pitchers who primarily started, their RR is one half of their SR. A pitcher gets an “A” hold if he allowed <50% of the average in SB, gets a C if >150%.Card formulas were broken into a number of eras, the same as used on the great teams with the following subtractions.Era 1b K W XBH*41-62 10.9 7.1 5.7 8.463-76 10.8 9.6 5.3 7.977-92 10.7 9.5 5.5 8.493-10 10.1 11.3 5.7 10.011-17 9.9 13.0 5.1 9.8*XBH is used to calculate BD numbers.

From the creator of Statis Pro Advanced comes the first revision for the original Avalon Hill Baseball game since the game went out of print in the early 90s. Why could this be the Statis Pro Baseball game for you? Game strategy and accuracy has been improved dramatically with only a single page of rules and charts to amend the original game. You’ll be up and playing this improved Statis Pro in a matter of minutes. 1. Accuracy of results: Let’s not kid ourselves, Statis Pro is fun, but the Pitcher Card “Rulebook Formula” used for the original cards is daft and highly inaccurate. Pitchers in the Revised Edition will replicate their real life batting average, on-base and slugging percentage allowed. You can have a 2-6 ace, and a 2-8 bum. Batter and Pitcher cards are normalized to their league so teams can compete realistically across eras. Balk, Wild Pitch and Passed Ball results are also now based on actual results. 2. Half Results: Many players in SP have less than one chance for HRs, HBP, 3b8. These players now have a “half-a-chance” to produce these results. Also players who are incredibly difficult to K, or pitchers who walk very few batters have a special rating to match their real life results. 3. Platoon Advantage: A simple platoon advantage system that modifies PB: draws adds another level of strategy and accuracy without the added complexity of double column LH/RH splits and encourages intuitive and realistic player use. Players are rated from -3 (extremely poor) to +3 (huge advantage). 4. Park Effects: Going into Coors Field? Very likely your pitcher’s “Stuff” could be Bad, but they may get a boost in Dodger Stadium. 5. New Charts: A new Steal chart set up just like the original takes into account the steal percentage of baserunners as well as the hold ability of the pitcher. New CD chart eliminates “No Results”, makes defense more important of a consideration in your lineup. Defensive ratings, including Arms, are based on the most modern stats available. The Hit and Run Chart remains in the same style but the batters batting average is now taken into consideration. No more turning that .180 hitting 2Bman into a .400 hitting menace with a runner on 1st. 6. Pitching Strategies and Platoon modifications are also on the chart. 7. Card design: Cards are larger (business cards) and laid out in an easier read format which includes team colors, league leaders, awards and all the important stats you’ll need to make decisions. 8. You can use these revisions with any Statis Pro card set. 9. A large and growing Facebook community sharing tips, modifications and game results. Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE
