So this leaves the question about what are real stats because to me yours are as real as it can get.

From the manual
Real Stats: The "standard Lahman" option. Current player ratings will be assigned based on a player's historical statistics. So, in this case, a player who played in a hitter-friendly park throughout his career could end up with inflated ratings.
Neutralized Stats: The "Garlon and Spritze" option. Current player ratings will be assigned based on a player's neutralized statistics, giving perhaps the most accurate assessment of individual player ratings on an even playing field.
PS YouTube has video of Maris’s 61 homer. It was a pretty big deal at the time since he was chasing “The Babe’s” record. He was under a lot of pressure the last couple months of the season and started losing his hair. My 1st major league game was July 1961 WhiteSox vs Yankees and Maris did hit a homer to right field. I think he also had a triple and a single that game. White Sox we’re up by 4 runs but Yankees came back to win it by 1. When I was home with Covid I found a radio broadcast of the game on the internet and listened to it, that was fun. Yes I am old.
