I would think this could be a serious issue for historical replays.

stolen base ratings in particularily are very high because of this issue but you get realistic stolen base totals if you lower the league setting for steals to very rarely for the first few seasons. As Garlon mentioned the new database he and ARod are making will solve this issue.
