These tests also raise another question. If the player is debuting in OOTP at a younger age than he has MLB stats, what stats is OOTP using to determine his ratings at that age?
For example, Barry Bonds debuted as a 19 year old in the OOTP debut draft, but didn't have any MLB stats to base ratings on until he was 21. Does that mean that his 19 year old season get his 1st year's stats (when he was really 21), his 20 year old season gets his 2nd year's stats (when he was really 22) and so on? (For these questions, assume that recalc is on.)
And, the case of Chipper Jones is even more interesting. Jones made his MLB debut as a 21 year old, missed the entire season as a 22 year old and then returned as a 23 year old. In the draft using the Gambo/Spritze database, the age chosen for him to debut was the age in his career that he missed the whole season.
