Can Historical Lineups include the historical starting pitchers?
 
OK, my bad, OOTP does start the actual, correct, historical starters when you go to Manage Game. The starters are not correctly shown on the Scores screen for unplayed games.

The Historical Lineup mode in historical games would be even better if OOTP would start the actual historical starter for each game. The starters are all right there in Baseball Reference. (So it's possible to manually start the right guy for each game, but that's a lot of games!) I do not see how it would be so difficult for the OOTP engine to do this.

If you choose historical lineups, OOTP will use the correct starting pitchers for each game from 1901 forward.

That is not the case. I just started a Historical Lineups league (starting in 1901) and OOTP definitely does not use the actual starting pitchers, as listed on Baseball Reference.

I just simmed the 1901 season and I see the correct starting pitchers assigned to each team each game. Did you, in fact, enable historical lineups when you created the league?

Yeah I did! And, yes, I see what I did wrong. I was looking at the SCORES screen and assuming the listed starters were the starters the game engine would use but I guess when you Manage or QuickPlay a game, the AI inserts the actual, historical starter.
Thanks for your help, guys.
