You can try a 4-man strict order or highest rested starter setting in 1974. One thing to consider is that some teams could have been using 4-man and some 5-man rotations IRL.

Over time though these things even out. In my sim, Ryan ended up with 780 GS, 4975 IP, 5186 K, and 243 K per 1000 Batters Faced. In the sim Ryan retires after 1991, and does not play 1992-1993 because we put a force-retire after a certain age limit so that guys like Minnie Minoso don't play into their late 50's because they have those cameo appearances in their stats. IRL Ryan made 773 GS, 5386 IP, 5714 K, and 253 K per 1000 Batters Faced.
