What is the Player Evaluator?
The Player Evaluator is another advanced analysis tool that’s unique to Rhino Baseball. Like the Trade Analyzer, it’s main purpose is to help you analyze trades and keep/drop scenarios, but it takes a totally different approach. The Player Evaluator lets you choose groups of players to compare, and then calculates a Quality Rating for each player based on an assortment of 10 different factors (age, salary, contract status, actual year-to-date stats, projected stats, position, etc.). Those quality ratings are then compared to determine whether the given trade or keep/drop scenario would be beneficial to you. What’s really neat about the Player Evaluator is that it doesn’t just focus solely on a player’s stats, but also realizes the value of youth, a low salary, position scarcity, and other non-stats related factors. It’s an extremely useful evaluation tool for team owners who play in keeper leagues.
