The last year, 2014 carries 50%, which is NOT more than the 50% pf 2013 & 2012.
To clarify- I do not agree with him getting a 99.
I think you should hit at least .355 to get a 99.
SCEA has their own formula: Hit .335 get a 99
2014 50% .280
2012 & 2013 50% he hit .390
That's how he gets a 3 year average of .335, which in SCEA's eyes is good enough for a 99. A .335 is NOT good enough in my eyes, my minimum for a 99 would be .355.
Hope the confusion is gone.

Nope, still confused. I don't see it as a simple 3-year average. If it were, then why would they say last year carries 50% weight? You are basically taking 3years and combining them to get a 99, saying last year is nothing more than 33.3 percent of his average.

Oh, I see what you did there with the combination. So that's how they use that 50% weight factor. Even a player who hit .280 last year against LHP can get a 99 for contact. Well, I shouldn't be surprised.

2014 50% .280
2013 25% .388
2012 25% .392

It's an easy mistake to get caught up in that 50 percent .280 2014 avg.
But you can't dismiss his 2012/13 stats, which makes up 50 percent.
If it was a 33.3 percent avg., he would have an avg. of .353 .

But his avg. using:
2014 50% .280
2013 25% .388
2012 25% .392
gives him a .335 avg.

EDIT: you got it

Yeah, I got it, but I sure don't agree with what they did there. Geez, I wonder how all those LHPs were able to get him out last year, him having 99 contact. Eh, .280 is no 99 contact player in my eyes, especially when it was his last year!

No sir, I agree with you, he shouldn't be a 99. And I don't even have a problem using a one year avg. If I were making a historic roster for the 2014 season, I'd give him a 68 vs lefties.

Maybe I'm just a red's fan but I'd think Johnny Cueto would rank a little higher than 92, and maybe Mesoraco's rating is right but I think he has A potential.

Frst Time I'll be playing the show franchise but what does the star by some players name's mean? And why does ichiro suzuki have A potential?
