I wonder how accurate do the stats need to be?
You know what is acceptable to me may not be acceptable to others.
So i dont know how much more Markus can do with historical accuracy.
I really dont know how any game can do it. I think the idea of replaying baseball seasons in a game with accurate results is almost impossible. There is always gonna be a player that didnt perform like he did in real life. Unless you just want the team stats to be accurate.
But even there would you be satisfied if Gehrig hit 63 hrs while Ruth hit 39 for the 27 Yankees but yet they still won 108 games? I am just satisfied that the sats are in the ballpark but yet still allow for what if scenarios without turning a Menodza into a career .350 hitter 95 % of the time.
