I have a spreadsheet of the 2012 stats, which I use for my encyclopedia. I may be able to help out by creating a new world can use the end of the season files and start at the end of the 2012 season, instead of at the beginning. I am thinking of the following plan--

Simming the 2012 season, so we get to the end of the year. Then, export the stats file and take out the simmed 2012 major league stats, replace them with the real world 2012 stats and then reimport the file.

There are a few logistical problems. First, we won't have the actual 2012 standings. The OOTP world would have its owned simmed standings and postseason results. I don't think there's anyway we can edit the standings, so we would just have to live with that.

I would turn off AI moves during the 2012 season. The problem that I see with that is, due to injuries, we'd have players playing out of position, thus earning experience at that position, which would then affect them for future OOTP seasons. For example, I ran a test sim last night and, just looking at the Yankees, Derek Jeter got 22 G at 2B and Eric Chavez caught a few games. I can get around that by reimporting the rosters at the end of the season, thus retaining the original position experience figures. But, the cost of reimporting is we lose a year's worth of player aging and maturing.
