When I create a historical game the team abbreviations clearly come from the Lahman Database (or, perhaps Retrosheet).

Are these database keys that if modified will screw up accessing the data as the league progresses, or is it OK to modify without doing so?

Example, I don't want WS2 to be the abbreviation for the Washington Senators of 1961, I want it to be WAS.
