HBD BASEBALL 101 by ROD33

PLAYER RATINGS REVIEW - Part One

	Contact determines how well the player can make contact at the plate.
	Power determines how well a player hits the ball and plays the primary                            role in slugging percentage.
	Batting Versus Left-Handed Pitching determines how a batter fares against lefties, both in terms of making contact and power.
	Batting Versus Right-Handed Pitching determines how a batter fares against righties, both in terms of making contact and power.
	Batting Eye involves plate recognition and dictates a player's ability to            draw the walk, avoid the strike out looking, and taking                            advantage of mistake pitches.
	Base running determines how adept the player is at running the bases.      This includes taking an extra base or holding up, and knowing                        when and when not to steal a bag.
	The Bunt rating is a good indicator of how well the player is at laying           down sacrifice bunts as well as laying down bunt singles.
	The Push/Pull rating indicates whether the player is a pull hitter or      opposite field hitter. A rating of 0 indicates an extreme pull hitter.
