I may be slow on the uptake, and I might have missed an explanation for this. But when I download the CSV files for the CDG, the counting stats for batters are all showing with decimal places. Online, they are showing as whole numbers. Moreover, the decimals appear to be truncated rather than rounded. For example, here's Ohtani, on-screen and in the CSV:
On screen: AB 524, R 102, HR 41, RBI 101, SB 35, CS 4
CSV: AB 524.5714, R 102.9714, HR 41.7714, RBI 101.0286, SB 35.9429, CS 4.8571
Oddly enough, decimal stats look like they are rounded rather than truncated -- BA .2929 in the CSV rounds to .293, OBP .3928 rounds to .393, ADP 1.38 rounds to 1.4.
For pitchers, the counting stats display as whole numbers.
Obviously, it's not that much of a difference. But I am curious. What's the rationale for doing it this way? And are you also truncating the pitchers' counting stats?
