The long answer is that every season you play will have so-called "League Total Modifiers" that tweak the different statistical outputs to suit what you are looking for. So if you are in the late 90s then HRs will be increased, and if you are in the 2020s then HRs, Ks, and BBs will be increased- etc. So if you take say Babe Ruth his ratings tell you that he has about as much HR power as any player can have- and then when you slot him into a different era instead of hitting the raw number of HRs he did IRL he will (likely) be at the top of the HR curve for whatever era he is playing in.
Very good, thanks.

Also curious how many teams are allowed in a league? How many teams in a tournament? Does it have a tournament format that allows you to keep stats and draws from the tournament?

And I believe my question has been answered on 'career' players. That is, there is no player created to represent a player's career, that instead, I might pick a player's most representative year for some career project. Let's say I wanted to do a franchise league and have the best players in Cubs history, I would find the most appropriate season card for each player? Is that how game players deal w/ that? I assume there's no way to average statistics and create a player based on the player's best 5 years or something like that.
