Actually, a source I have that is 10 years old has the exact same affiliations for 1932 as BB ref does now (same w another long-ago year, 1938, chosen randomly). So my guess is while there always research to be done that could unearth add'l info on independent and foreign league/teams, as far as teams that were affiliated w MLB, changes are unlikely... I could be wrong...
