So yeah they'll just select players with different Attributes and tell them just to do that 1 specific thing that they're good at.
Baseball Example:
Adam Dunn,
Strengths: High OBP and HR totals
Weakness: Low Batting Average, High Strikeout Total
Dunns Job is to Hit Homeruns and Draw Walks, as many times as possible, Irrespective of how many games he goes 0-5 with 3 Stikeouts.
A Typical Adam Dunn Game Log would be
0-3
0-3
1-2 (HR)
0-2
1-3
1-3 (HR)
Now for a Cricket Analogy
Javed Omar, His Job would be to stay as long as possible irrespective of the RR and Spittys Wishes for him to retire. (What he did in the DW ERA)
Strengths: Stays in the Wicket for a long time
Weakness: Horrible Strikerate
A Typical JO Game log would be
15(45)
21(35)
34(65)
20(45)
8(24)
6(17)
50(88)
Aftab and JO would be Moneyball Characters in Cricket cause they always did it in one way, they had specfic roles and they always did those roles.
