Ratings are always relative. Back then the average team struck out just over 3 times per game. Today its 8.5. His 58 strikeouts per game back then is equivalent to a player with nearly 200 now.

Gehrig regularly was in the top ten for most strikeouts. Hence low Avoid K is appropriate.

How can we be this late into the game and people still dont know how ratings work.
