Consider the 1906 Cubs.
Their real defensive stats give them 39.5 PO+A per 27 outs.
Their neutralized defensive stats yield 48.7 PO+A per 27 outs.
Their real defensive stats look pretty average or even slightly below league average. The neutralization process boosts them by 23%.
This is realistic since the 1906 Cubs won 116 games and had more defensive win shares than any team in history.
