OK, I'll edit away. I completely agree with you about Gibson. He's coming out just fine in my tests as well. Sorry, bad example.
A better example would be Pop Lloyd, and I'm probably just missing something, but if you look at his real life stats tab, he's a career .202/.272/.236 hitter. This is a guy who Connie Mack compared to Honus Wagner. It's probably too fine a distinction, but in that instance I would personally rather have two Honus Wagners (and I don't mean exactly, just somewhere close), b/c in my opinion that would have been closer to what Lloyd would have done than a career .508 OPS. With any sort of recalc on, Lloyd never really has a chance with those real life stats (well, a pretty small chance.) This is also true of other guys like Pete Hill but you did say that especially some of the pre-1920 guys still need to be tweaked, so you're probably already on this.
So I'll just shut the hell up and edit.
Thanks again.
