I'm actually intrigued to discover that the milb data is included pre-1919. It raises the potential for using real players in wholly unaffiliated minor leagues from the first part of the century. I added another fairly lengthy entry about 1901-1902 with and without draft in the thread D Watt started in "General Discussions": http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/boar...igure-out.html The screen shots there may help Markus. Personally, I'm more interested in playing without a draft for games in the first half of the 20th century, just having all the players appear as free agents (and, frankly, I wish that the minor leaguers would appear in that mode). Unfortunately, they appear only with the draft, and those playing with the draft probably want only the major leaguers to appear. Catch-22.
