Basic Point League Scoring

[HollywoodHartman]

Hello, I posted here before the season about a points league a friend made that had been run for years. The problem was the league was easily exploitable and as I predicted, I'm destroying it. Everyone in the pool agrees changes need to be made for next year. They seem to be set on a points league.

Here are this years points:

R (2), H (1), 2B (2), 3B (6), HR (4), RBI (2), SB (3),
W (3), CG (4), SHO (6), SV (2), K (2)

As you can see only K pitchers have even a remote value. And still not much at that. What is a fair way to balance a points league? Please post cats and points needed.

Make wins worth 10 points, CGs worth 10, CG shutouts worth 20, saves worth 6, and Ks worth 1. Add a loss of 1 point per walk and -5 for a loss. That's nuts to make Ks so valuable. I think the offensive points are fine...

more points for a triple than a HR tho????????

HR are more common then triples.

top 5 HR leaders
25, 23, 18, 17, 3 w/ 16(total for top 5 numbers[7 people]=131 HR)

top 5 triple leaders
13, 2 w/ 8, 7, 4 w/ 5, 11 w/ 4(total top 5 triple number[19 people]=100 3B)
