Neither. Recalc does not use simmed stats, and it doesn't reset ratings to the prior year.
An example, let's say that a player spent all of 1988 absolutely tearing it up in triple A, but for some reason didn't get to the majors (or barely played in the majors). In your sim you have recalc based upon current year only (1-yr recalc), so there's a decent change that he'll play in the majors and might perform well because his ratings will be based upon his excellent triple A numbers. Then let's say that in 1989, for whatever reason he had a terrible year in triple A. Recalc won't care about his 1988 sim stats, it will only look at his terrible 1989 triple A stats and give him ratings according to those.
