More people should forget about that page. "What-if" leagues evolve. Players move to different teams with different park factors, some get injured, some play longer, development and TCR affects them, and fairly quickly the talent in a "what-if" league doesn't match historic talent.

There is no validity to comparing the output of a "what-if" league to historic output. No relevance. It's supposed to perform differently because it is different.
