A major league Pop Lloyd hits around .215 ages 21-23, .320's and 330's until age 32, .250's ages 33 to 44, and .350 45 to 48. This follows the same curve path his real career took.

I'd probably cut him off at age 35 or so as his skills declined rapidly around then which would increase his overall average to around .300. Otherwise I could leave him in and he could play in the minors until age 48 which in reality he sorta did. Personally I think it would be cool to have him in my minors for next to forever but I'm taking votes. Also his low averages from ages 21 to 23 put him my minors but with good potential ratings. He hit .340 in AA and .284 and then .278 in AAA those years before hitting .296 his first year in the bigs.

Keep in mind these stat lines are approximations of what the player would do in the major leagues at that age, he might tear up the minors at that age even though his ML equivalents would be such that he just isn't good enough to play there just yet.

This db is major league 750 run environment equivilancies only. Everyone is equivalent.

Hate to say this but I had forgotten to include a query in the final db run. This is why the negro league batters came out so low. I had fixed this months ago but just forgot to include it in the final. I still think pre-1920's need more work as my test db did have this update included and I still thought they seemed a tiny bit low.
