There will be an Ichiro on every roster. Also an Aparicio. Those are historical cards, but they are ranked bronze when they shouldn't be and are common enough that everybody can have one. There are probably another four or five no-brainer cards like that. No matter where you set your ratings cap, the result will always be the same.

Such a long post, yet fundamentally flawed. You can not pull a perfect and diamond in your starter packs; they are fixed. 1 Gold, 3 Silver, 12 Bronze, 20 assorted somethings.

Despite all the "meta" talk, the number of players is finite and actually not very big, including who-knows-how-many people with multiple accounts that will only spend money on one. There comes a point, where you will not be able to sell a Mike Trout even for 20k, because everybody that wants one already has one. Same for every card in the game.
