The perfect version is playable and representative of Aaron's career. As said before, a lot of his value was in durability and playing at a high level for a very long time. In perfect team every player is durable and can play at the same level forever.

Remove the name from the card and look at the stats. A .977 OPS doesn't rank in the top 500 seasons of all time. His defense was bad. It's probably a diamond card based on offense alone that drops due to positional value and defense.

OOTP is all stats not stories.

His 14.3 at-bats per homerun ratio that season (what OOTP power rating represents) is 431st all time. Would there be an uproar if 2001 troy glaus had the same rating?
