"My suspicion is that the 1.38 in-season aging model has the potential for a pitcher's ability to strike players out to climb unbounded, where the old off-season aging model had some form of hard cap on ability. In my imagination, there's no way we-the-users can tell this, because we see the 'scaled' rating - 100 Velocity! - and not the raw number which is generating incredible strikeout totals."
 
I think you got it right there.   This is something that Shaun will have to work on for PS 2008, or just shelve entirely.  Personally, I'm happy with between-season improvements.     

KG Erwin,
 
You and Amaroq seem to be correct.
 
URett's 40-team league seems to blow my theory out of the water, so it seems as though the "in-season aging model" must be the sole (or at least the primary) culprit.
