Just playing through MLB to see what happens and I noticed a guy called Thomas Meara (actual minor performance - 32hr in 11 games in 1887 http://www.baseball-reference.com/re...d=meara-001tho) showed up in the majors in 1887 and hit 15-88-75-59 HR in the next four seasons.

I had neutralized stats on and development engine rather than recalc, but still that's a hell of a development jump from season 1 to 2 for a guy that had 136 minor league ABs. Is this courtesy of his insane minor league HR record?

Update: Started again with a non-neutralized game and he's just whipped home 87 long balls in 1888. Checked his stats and he has a 255 power rating against both L and R pitchers. By comparison second in HR was Jack Clements with 23 and his power rating is 80 vs LHP and 99 vs RHP.
