OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Fictional League starting transitioning from 80s to 90s

Hi friends,

I’ve recently started a Fictional League, and I started it in 1980 with all 1980 settings. I had the CPU auto-play all seasons until 1990 to get some historical data, and I will start managing in 1990.

My question is, I know OOTP models performance of players depending on the era they play in. So, can I expect the players in my league to slowly transition to becoming more home-run heavy as I progress through the 90s (to model the outrageous power numbers we saw in the 90s), or is there a fair degree of randomness to how the majority of players will develop?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
