One example (out of many): if a league has no JD Martinez and one is added to the league, this single Martinez might hit 45 HRs. But if a second JD Martinez is added, both might hit 43 HRs, Add yet another JD Martinez to the mix and the three Martinez clones might all hit 39 HRs (on average). Each additional JD Martinez is less valuable than the one before.
The above is true for HRs and for many other categories of statistical output (both for offense and defense). Some statistical output (of some fixed amount for a league) might have few people trying to grab it and baseball players who generate this output might be undervalued in the AH. At the same time, some baseball players who have talents to grab some already over-grabbed statistical output are over-priced.
The above is a different process than in regular OOTP in which the talent pool is relatively set. In PT, the talent pool has continually grown (although more slowly now) which makes more important a consideration of the set amount of statistical output.
