Thanks! The issue is that in historical transaction/trades Richard just stops playing in mid-season. He isn't even listed as injured; he just stops playing. It has something to do with the way the mode is structured, and I can't figure it out. And then he's usually gone by 1981 (which is what happened in real life). I'll fool around with it: I've unretired him before but then he gets turned into a reliever! I was hoping to see what the Astros would be like if JR and Nolan were there to dominate the early 80s NL West
