I modified the batting stats for a player but it didn seem to have any affect on his performance. Why not?
We designed the game to allow you to change the statistics without affecting his performance. To change performance, you must choose Player/Modify/Event. Doing so will cause his event table (which determines how well he bats or pitches) to be modified and will cause his stats for display purposes to be changed as well. But you can also change his display stats without affecting his performance by choosing Player/Modify/Bstats. Why? To give you the opportunity to create an event table based on stats other than those used for reporting purposes. If a player went 3 for 4 with a homer, and you enter these numbers when creating the player, he’ll be rated as a phenomenal hitter (not a .750 hitter, but better than any other player in baseball). Suppose you know that he’s been a career .270 hitter, and you want him to perform that way. You could use player creation or modification to create an event table by entering fictitious stats — 100 AB, 27 hits, and suitable numbers in the other catego
