Reasoning: Based on real-world performance trends (wOBA, FIP)
correlated with historical attribute upgrade patterns.
- Add analytical context:
- Real-world performance driving potential upgrades (link to sabermetric data)
- Historical price patterns around roster updates
- Supply/demand dynamics
- Collection impact (gate cards vs. non-gate)
Correlation with Real-World Stats
The most valuable insight this plugin provides is connecting real-world
sabermetric performance to in-game card upgrades. A player whose real FIP
has dropped 0.5+ points since the last update is a strong upgrade candidate.
Roster Update Schedule
- Fridays — Weekly roster updates (attributes, overalls)
- Monthly — Major content drops (new programs, flashbacks)
- Attribute changes correlate with 2-week rolling real-world performance
