I've NEVER seen it in 50+ replays from OOTP 5 on...

I've always asked for more realistic drops and rises, such as batting average, HR power and Avoid Ks might go down, but gap power and Eye might go up...many above average players have made this type of swing to stay in the majors into their 30's

However, I've seen enough players stay stagnant after an initial drop like this in mid 20's, so 2 years...he has a good chance of staying like this if that won;t hurt your team too much.

If so, put him on waivers, take him off, do it again and again and maybe someone will bite by Sept.

What are your development and aging % ?
