We as gamers of OOTP have the ability to adjust the modifiers and ratings to suit whatever type of game you prefer. Think a player's stats are unrealistic, change his ratings to your fancy. Play a season and see how he does. He might just put up worse numbers or maybe even better.

I play a 100% fictional league, so I have no pre-conceived notions about the stats of any particular player. So, if there is an outlier, I typically won't know it unless I look at and compare stats from previous seasons.

We know that outliers happen even in real-life MLB. So, if someone wants the players to produce exactly as in real-life, then that would be a replay more or less and very boring. But even then, you can still have outliers.

When I do historical replays/simulations, players don't always play true to their stats. Why? Because THAT'S BASEBALL!
