If you want an alternative history, turn recalc off. With recalc, players who had injuries cut their careers short have their ratings plummet with recalc; if you have injuries on, players who historically didn't have their careers cut short, do. Turning recalc off, players get imported according to the option you select (career, peak, etc), but then develop with the OOTP engine, giving some variability.

In my current test reaching 1984, Tony Conigliaro tops the HR table (with Babe Ruth only 9th), Joe Torre and Babe Herman are in the top 5 VORP, 'Smoky Joe' Wood avoided injury and tops the pitching VORP table, while Bob Grim (who started only 60 games IRL) is a 337 game winning twice Cy Young award winning HOF'er.
