Lincoln was robbed

Post by tworoosters »

First off, the awards in the Sim are badly flawed but if you are going to have them they should be logical.

In the NL the Gold Glove for SS was awarded to Doug Hartranft over Jimmy Lincoln under more than dubious circumstances.

The Gold Glove formula is : (FPCT * 1000) + (+/- * .5) + (RF * 15) under which Lincoln has 1064.3 points while Hanfrant has 1063.8, so right there Lincoln should win but apparently ABE can't work with fractions so they both end up at 1064 and then Hanfranft gets the award because ......he's older.

BOOOOOO

what are the odds

2118 - Lincoln and Hartranft tie again. Not surprisingly Hartfranft is still older so he wins again.

At least this time Hartranft had the higher score (1058.45 versus 1057.75 for Lincoln by my math) ;)

Didn't run the numbers, actually think Hartfranft probably had a better year last year with a slightly higher fielding % and range though Lincoln had a higher +/- and turned more DPs. I just was really surprised that 2 guys would tie twice in three years.

Apparently something changed on the final day and Lincoln finally beat Hartranft, by 1 point.

Both late 1st round picks who have had nice careers, Hartranft has been better with the bat but Lincoln has been solid as well
