I'm the first to concede there's very little raw data especially worth comparing. There's basically three ways I can think on the fly and none are useful:
-20.2 80s/90s player per team or 606 total
-That's 80% or 4 out of every 5 players are capable, if you will, of solid to good maybe even great production
-The number of stats that would be available to distribute
I think I feel there's still work to be done because I don't believe at any point in baseball history where 4/5 players were above average. I also feel that you get very bland, unrealistic and less random results when the game is obligated to divvy up its limited stats to an over inflated talent pool. It's very difficult to explain but I hope you see what I mean with the stats distribution.
