Since he is the player that started me down this path, I pulled up his BBREF page, again and compared the neitralized stats there with the neutralized stats in OOTP 14.

On his neutralized RL pitching page in OOTP, his ERA+ is listed as 110, down from the 121 on his main RL stats page. This is still much better than his BBREF ERA+ of 98.

His Neutralized ERA on BBREF is 4.44. In OOTP it is 4.24.
BBREF neutralized h/9 is 9.9. In OOTP it s 9.49.

On what the neutralization is based for the folks at BBREF in comparison to OOTP, I do not know. However, ERA+ IS a neutralized stat, and that number, even with the neutralized OOTP number of 110 is significantly better than his BBREF number of 98. The ERA+ number, if properly presented, should not change through neutralization, but it does in OOTP. There is a reason it isn't listed under neutralized stats on BBREF. That is because it would simply be redundant to do so, since it is listed in the primary display, already.
