PLAYER AGING
With the default settings, players don't really have a chance at breaking a lot of records because they don't get to play enough games in their careers. [...] 2686 was the most games played by any generated batter of which ranks 38th all time.
FINAL THOUGHTS
[...] but in limited testing, slowing aging and/or speeding up development significantly increases the talent level in the league. Players may improve their ratings faster, but it's unlikely they'll reach the majors anytime sooner since the requisite level for playing in the MLB will increase.

Thank you for this excellent feedback!
I will soon be starting a long-term MLB (plus international leagues) save. More variance in aging curves and career development would be welcome. I am considering changing TCR from the default 100 to 150 or even 200 to generate more unexpected outcomes.
