Linear Weights Fantasy Points

A couple of people have asked me, so this is how you can setup Linear Weights for your leagues:

THE BOOK--Playing The Percentages In Baseball

Basically, the average player is a 2 wins above replacement (WAR) player, and in this system, the average player would get 200 points. Your top hitter would be in the high 500s or low 600s. Your top pitcher in the 400s.
