Yes, that's part of it, but we can use VORP to say:
1. A-Rod had a higher VORP than Casey Blake, so he clearly was the better player last year.
OR
2. A-Rod had a higher VORP than Casey Blake, so we should probably get A-Rod instead of Blake, since A-Rod was clearly was the better player last year and is likely to perform better next year.
We could have done this with, say, OPS as well, but we should use VORP for this because it's a much better measure of relative value to other players (and, of course, to replacement players).

According to OOTP itself, OOTP MLB play (modern and historical) outnumbers OOTP fictional play three to one.
