The game prides itself on it's statistical accuracy on a yearly basis for the entire league. For individual players it prides itself on it's "realism" which it equates with rampant randomness (except for limiting peak HR performances and cutting down performance of PED suspects)
In consecutive years I had Tony Armas hit .335 with 44 HRs and .179 with 12 HRs. I would have been in deep trouble except the game gave some of his production to Richie Hebner who hit .280 with 31 HRs
at age 34!. Three cheers for the "realism" of rampant randomness. (The guys wear the Randomness Purity Ring.)
