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?

Was the 14.3 a little more consistent than the average 14.3? Not that you can expect that to be accounted for...
Just a difference between 11, 13, 19, 14, 6, 9, 15 & 12, 14, 26, 3, 6, 10, 19 (<---AB between HR)
Just setting a very vague example, though, not trying to make much of a point.
