Fictional Players to Real Players Baseball Reference style comparisons?

Is it possible for this anywhere in the game?

I've had some legendary players in my 130+ year fictional league, the NABA. I tried searching but I didn't turn up much as it's kind of an odd search.

On Baseball Reference, something I've always loved was comparisons through age and by whole career of a player to all the other players in the history of the league. Like I remember in the early 2000s when I was first discovering that site, Sammy Sosa (my favorite from 1994 until 2004 smh) had playes like Willie McCovey on his list of comparables through that age.

I know I could probably see comparisons of guys with other players in my fictional league.

But does anyone know of a tool or way that would let me compare these fictional players to real life players and get comparisons there?

Like this? If so, go into the players profile and click on compare player and it will give a list like this. My bad I see you wanted them compared to REAL life players... no, that can't happen that I know of. It takes players from your league. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

That's still useful to know for sure where that is to compare with others in my own league because I hadn't actually looked at that yet so thank you for that.

I figure it would probably have to be some sort of tool where you would load the league players' stats and the real life players' stats together and it would use whatever algorithms that Baseball Reference uses for comparisons, but need to be set to only show MLB comparisons for the fictional players.

I'm no computer wizard so I'd have no idea where to begin or if it was even possible lol.
