*I'll start off by saying this player was NOT edited in any way, whatsoever.
Sorry for starting another thread, but I just HAD to share this with everyone. The wife and I are on holidays, so just for fun I created a fictional league that started in 1950 and set it to simulate to 2016, leaving automatic league evolution on, just to see where and how the league ends up. Just something I sometimes like to do for fun. Then glance over league history - look at dynasties, legends etc..
Anyways, I started with 24 clubs and tried to mimic real life baseball history by automatically adjusting league strategy, financial settings, league totals modifiers, and using accurate player creation modifiers based on the correct years. The only change I really made, was using the default/modern player origins right from the creation of the league.
So I set it to sim, and decided to stop it in 1996 just to see how the league is going - check out expansions and relocations, look at current records etc.. I decide to go to historical leaderboards, and something catches my eye. Tiburcio Suggia is the all-time leader in home runs with....1055!. I thought there's no way that could be right, but I went to his player profile..and low and behold..
7 Triple Crowns
14 MVP's (5x 2nd place in voting)
21 All-Star appearances
20 Silver Sluggers
3 WBA Championship Rings
3 WBA Championship MVP's
5 additional Playoff Series MVP's
53 Batter of the Month awards
64 Player of the Week awards
This is absolute insanity. At least compared to anything I've ever personally seen in OOTP. I swear, this player was NOT edited in any way.
He was also ridiculously reliable when it came to health. Barely missed any time in his entire career. His biggest injury was a sprained thumb that kept him out a week.
He HAD to have been on the juice..right? Never got caught - no suspensions at all in his history..but c'mon, look at those totals.
