Baseball Mogul 2014: New Feature Descriptions

Although this repeats some of the information posted earlier this month, this is the description of new features that is being included in the help files for Baseball Mogul 2014:

Major League Equivalencies

Baseball Mogul automatically analyzes each player's career (at all levels, including major league and minor league stats) and converts them to "Major League Equivalencies", projecting how each player will perform in the upcoming season. For example, a .300 batting average with the Pawtucket Red Sox might translate to a .273 batting average at the major league level. Real-life minor league stats (see below) are adjusted for level of play and park factors.

Baseball Mogul 2014

Baseball Mogul 2014 launches March 22nd!
It's official. Baseball Mogul 2014 will go on sale on March 25th.

As you would expect, we have made the following updates for the 2013 season:
  • The real 2013 schedule.
  • Updated stats through 2012.
  • Updated rosters.
  • New league format for 2013 (it's so weird seeing Houston in the AL West).
We also have some great new features to appeal to everyone from the pitch-by-pitch player to the stat geek to the front-office genius. These are the most noteworthy:
We've also been busy with many smaller improvements and fixing bugs (including this one, this onethis onethis one, and this one, as just a few examples).

Time to get back to work. Thanks for reading!
