Take a team as GM and Manager - many times the Mets, Phillies, or Blue Jays - from the '80s, '90s, or 2000's and trade in a few favorite players. Some times I'll do a draft of all the players, but knowing who will be good historically gives me quite an advantage I have to be careful about.

Interestingly, if lousy trades from real life are avoided, the teams (hello, Mets) perform rather well. Also, it's amazing how many real life trades the AI will mimic, even with historical transactions off.
