The entire point to the process is that you don't have foreknowledge. That's why it works and why all stats is too easy without giving the AI a huge advantage somehow... actually instead of going back and forth about who is right or not let me just show you what happened to my all stats league.
Give me a minute to load it.
..okay here is what happened.
As you can see, its way too easy. I even won the 1st season which never happens with me. This league was fictional with historic rookies but no recalc for the rookies so anything could happen with them. All the great historic rookies were taken by the 5th pick so I never got any of them but I did get all the impossible picks by year 3 or 4. As you can see from the record, by 1920 the game was pointless and it just snowballed out of control.
But the above does not tell the real story. The real story is in the minor leagues. If you look at my farm you would laugh. The AAA, AA, A, and S-A teams get 1st place around 75% of the time since 1917 and 2nd place around 20% of the time. I always ended up with the expensive draft picks that no one else wanted due to price. Note I do not manage any of the minor leagues except for player promotions and demotions and still they won that much.
