Even more confusing, are you saying you don't want your players to perform well? In 4000 PAs he has a 162-game avg of 37 HRs, so 42 and 43 aren't even that much over his average. That's about a 10-15% variance which you stated you didn't mind seeing. The guy just dropped off at age 30 which happens a lot more than you think. Look up Richard Hidalgo for an even more extreme example.
