Even if he has no historical adjustments on, though, I still think the case for Pedro is pretty strong. In 1998, Pedro was 27, while Schilling was 31. In my experience with OOTP, I would doubt the development engine will be as kind to Schilling as real life was as he ages.
I think the point you made in your first paragraph is certainly a valid criticism of playing with real players, and I know many feel the same way. Since we're making a recommendation here for an historical league, though, I was making much of the recommendation in light of the fact that he probably has some sort of configuration that will make things resemble the real future.

Agree, I went off topic. There are a lot of factors that can be taken into account that aren't listed and it should be taken at face value given the scenario.
