(I know we spend too much time debating the qualifications for awards, but this is the most egregious award I have noticed recently.)

And bad ERA/WHIP should offset saves for FOY awards. It looks really bad when a ROY award would go to [url=http://www.simdynasty.com/player.jsp?player=nobody&mode=stats&id=7915519]this thing[/url] as opposed to [url=http://www.simdynasty.com/player.jsp?player=nobody&mode=stats&id=7500594]this one[/url].(I know we spend too much time debating the qualifications for awards, but this is the most egregious award I have noticed recently.)

ABs count as negative points for batters for the ROY. You can see the formula in the game guide. Perhaps the penalty needs to be increased. This has the effect of weighing rate stats higher.
FOY is a formula created by MLB. We just follow that formula.

In the example I posted, I can't imagine any scenario where Sherman should beat out Delgado for ROY. I'd propose that we tweak the AS/ROY formulas to include the important ratios in some way.

You are viewing the raw post code; this allows you to copy a message with BBCode formatting intact.
So if this is the ROY formula: RBIs + Total Bases + Runs + Walks + SBs - (SO *.25) - (CS * 2) - Errors - (AB / 8), it seems like ABs are penalized slightly to normalize the effect of more PAs on counting stats...but severly deficient ratios are not penalized at all. In real life, an extremely low BAvg/OBP/OPS is going to carry some negative impact in the minds of voters. Similarly, a high BAvg/OBP/OPS is going to resonate positively with voters.
