They are running hot in game.
I'm redoing the traditional stats (EC stopped doing them on his final run) in my own model. It's a similar process to his. Mine FWIW is a an origin league based z-score mapped on the NL ratios for HR, BB, SO, HBP and WP then adjusted with a reliability factor to account for the sample size of innings in a given year and then adjusted for quality of play in the origin league. I use the same quality scores for the leagues as EC. I do not blend years to a three year average though as he did. The game does that if you want it. I work on the pitchers daily as they are the current bottleneck - lots of research on newspapers.com and Latin American stat sites for league totals that BBR doesn't have yet. The goal is to get it out by Xmas with not just the pitchers tweaked but all the new pitchers EC didn't do traditional stat lines for into the game (plus the batters not in the original mod).
If you like you can wait for the 26-compatable mod before getting the game but when the mod is ready for 26 (late though that is), I'd value you giving it some testing on release so that if the MLEs go into OOTP27's base game they get a longer test run as to how the game treats them.
