When that is addressed then a much more accurate 19th century baseball presentation will be possible.
Thats not correct though. It can handle clubs folding. The abbreviations juat have to be edited in the database. Now i can understand players having to adjust league settings but i dont see why transactions cant be done. I can run a league and have the actual teams for each year and players going to their original teams. I dont get the we cant do it cause teams folded argument. Its only because we havent made the adjustments in the database.
