Gets promoted to AA, proceeds to go 1 for 8, and is called up to the major leagues (skipping AAA altogether!) on June 29th, and starts in his first major league game 24 days after being drafted out of college. He then hits .424 with a 165 OPS+ in his first 36 PAs.

How on earth does something like that happen? The AI clearly doesn't care about minor league stats *at all*. And obviously he won't keep up that pace, but nothing about the beginning of this guy's career is even remotely feasible. But it is pretty impressive and hilarious
He didn't play much. 19 PAs could be a slump.
Can't recall a name right now but I've seen the equivelant of hitting ...well scratch that, I've seen many a good hitter go 0 for 20.
