I seem to be running into problems with CDG values that are produced. I am using 7 categories for hitting (AVG, RBI, R, SB, Strikeouts, OBP, TB). We have 10 teams in the league and I'm setting a budget at $260 since we don't have one. This is giving me Victor Martinez as my top valued player at $68 dollars. Mike Trout is way down at less than a dollar. I'm thinking this is due to having strikeouts as a negative category but wouldn't expect one category out of seven to have such a large impact.

Yeah, using strikeouts as a negative category will defnitely screw with the results, but not usually to the extent you describe. Do a little trial/error work. Turn off the strikeout category, see if the values go back to normal. We may need to look at add'l settings in your config. -
Yes, if I take out strikeouts as a category, Mike Trout moves to the top at $42. Victor Martinez moves to a more expected $24. For my other settings, I have: Offensive Budget: 66%, Bench Players: 7, Valuation: Balanced, 8-P, 3-O, 1-C, 1-1B, 1-2B, 1-SS, 1-3B, 2-UTComment

Bench players should only be >0 if you pay auction dollars for them. (If straight draft, it doesn't matter).
I'd add strikeouts back in, with a very small weighting... like 0.25 or 0.33 or something like that.Comment

If I just move bench players to zero, Mike Trout's value goes to $-215 which is really out of whack. Weighing strikeouts at .25 does help as that moves Trout up to $40. For some reason, Victor Martinez is still above him at $50. If I add the bench players back, Mike Trout moves to third place at $33 and Martinez falls to eighth at $30. Not quite sure what's happening but looks like I'll need to play with the weighting some more or just go with the standard categories in my rankings.Comment
