Topic: hockey sort - highest average

1

i was doing some experimental stuff today and noticed a glitch (i think)
draftkings hockey - didn't check under fanduel
set slider at 1.0 minimum projection score
(could we get a 1.5 for hockey, going from 1.0 to 2.0 eliminates some cheap value players around 1.8 or 1.9)
optimize the remaining pool with highest average score setting.
run 10 lineups and you get players with projections of zero points.
shouldn't those get cleared out by the slider tool?
maybe i did this with too little sleep, but can you guys check it out.

The slider only hides players from view. It will not exclude them from crunches.

Example : If i set the slider to max $6000 player. Solving for lineups will still include players > $6000 unless they are unchecked.

yeah that makes sense. i guess that's why experimental things are a learning experience.
optimizing using cruncher projections or my projections would never include a zero projection in a lineup because there is always a better player projected at the same price because it would be greater than 0.0 projected.
the optimize highest average doesn't care if it's projected for zero points today or not.
i'll have to remember to clear those guys out.
