The total period considered in 1975 to 1995. He started in 1988 but cannot get credit for years past 1995. It's part of the imperfect parameters of this particular list. Read the previous post.

This blog is supposed to be all about things you can do with the PI. Definitely true, but the PI (as far as I know) is not set up to automatically start from each player's official rookie year.

You are not using players official rookie years as the starting point. For example, Ripken's official rookie year was 1982 and if you start from there he has 1,757 hits compared to Julio Franco's official rookie year the hits would be 1,622 I believe. His 10th official season, he played very little due to an injury. Why are you not using their official rookie year as the starting point? Very misleading when you consider some players come up in September and some might start their first season in April. I think this is a little bogus.
