The lack of interest may be that maybe many people aren't seeing what you are seeing? Not saying you aren't seeing it but how wide spread is it?
I ran a test overnight. An out of the box 45 year sim starting in 2016 using the
MLB setup (just MLB and minors). I wiped historical stats so I'm only looking at stats from OOTP.
I changed no settings in OOTP (except for turning off facegen and baseball cards).
Players with 300+ career HR'sin the 45 year sim:
C - 9
1B- 29
2B- 3
3B- 19
SS- 16
OF- 36
Other than 2B being very low that seems to be a pretty reasonable distribution.
As for players playing 150+ games in a season. I looked at the 45th year of the sim:
C- 0 (though 16 played 140-149 games)
1B- 15
2B- 15
3B- 11
SS- 12
OF- 29
Again, seems reasonable distribution though overall that seems like an awful lot of players playing 150+ games.
Next I am going to run a 45 year fictional league out of the box and see what I get there.
