If I were to do a historical league, the MLB Draft as we know it didn't start til June of 1965, if I were to start in say... 1950, is there still a draft in the game? or the old school way of scouting and signing players?

There's 3 ways for a historical rookie to enter a game:
- Directly in the team it debuted in in real life
- as a free agent
- as a draftee
This all depends on two check boxes in the options.

On top of that, often you hear about how players like Ted Williams and Bob Feller could've had even more illustrious careers had they not departed to country to fight in World War II for 4 years. Say I was doing a historical league set in 1943. Would Bob Feller be on the Indians?

Again there's an option for that

To be clear, the old versions of the game that are downloadable on this site are demos?
How drastic are the updates year to year? Would it really be worth my while you think to wait until OOTP 15 comes out?

Depends on the year. The big changes this year are on the graphics front.

Is it hard to add mods? Would someone with fundamental computer skills be able to do it with relative ease?

There's the I'm so stupid I can only use an Iphone way and the easy way.

The Game... if you're still reading this... how did Clayton Kershaw end up on the Brewers in your league? Just curious, since you like talking about your league.
Lastly, thank you to all you guys that have already answered my questions. You've been very helpful. I actually just got a new job this week that I will be starting in a couple weeks. Once I get a couple real good paychecks under my belt I think I'm gonna buy OOTP (not that its THAT expensive, but it will be a nice little treat). Just a matter of what demo I wanna try in the meantime I guess.

Try 14.
8 is free too, IIRC.
