impact of adding a player (1 Viewer)

I attempted to get some advice from the ffa (topic here), I forgot about the TBF.

I am looking for some ideas on how to evaluate the impact of adding a player to your fantasy roster. For this example lets use fantasy baseball 5x5 rotisserie scoring. Our knows are our goals for each category and the projected vale for the given player. There are also many other knowns such as league settings, # of teams...

Code:
Players   My	   Proj	GoalRN:	 98	 995HR:	 25	 200RBI:	91	 890SB:	 21	 141AVG:  .300	.278
For each of the categories I want to calculate the impact. For the top 4 this is real easy. Simply divide the projection by the goal and get your percentage of goal filled.
Code:
Players   My	   Proj	Goal  ImpactRN:	 98	 995	 10%HR:	 25	 200	 12%RBI:	91	 890	 10%SB:	 21	 141	 15%AVG:  .300	.278	  x%
This works great for the categories that are totaled up. For the fractions however this breaks. I have three ways of calculating the % impact, none of which I feel are accurate enough. So the question. How do you calculate % impact a player makes to your roster for categories that are not simple sums?
