Pretty much. I just let it run overnight. It was a test for my upcoming solo league. 78 guys in the 3,000 hit club is a little much, so I'm going to put aging/development factors back to 1.000 (I had slowed down aging and sped up development by about 50%) and see how that sim goes tonight.

Tudor went 144-146 with a 3.44 ERA in more than 2700 IP. His best season was 1983 when he went 18-11 with a 2.78 in 278 IP. He made one AS team and thrice won a Gold Glove.
Dean had three solid seasons, one mediocre one and two bad ones for the Cardinals. He was unlucky enough to get a couple of random talent drops. His '31 rookie season was his best: 19-9, 3.15, 242 IP.
Gibson was 34-53 with a 3.37 in 846 IP. His first year was an AS season (11-17, 2.87, 285 IP, 244 K's) but he would never be that good again. He gave the Tigers two more solid seasons before being hit with unlucky drops. I've generally only looked at big league stats for guys, but Gibson's screen shows an appearance in '65 and then again in '71 so I looked at his minor league numbers. The man pitched 2200 innings in the minors from 1960 through 1971. He wasn't very good, but he sure stuck around.
