Hello! I bought OOTP a few years ago, but have been out of the loop for a while. I'd like to get back to it. I have a few questions before I buy the game, though. Sorry if any have been asked already.

1) If I want to import an individual historical player into a game (either to see how some past player would do now, or, say, to see how Sandy Koufax might have done in 1968 if he didn't have to retire), how easy/difficult is it to do that?

2) If a historical player is imported into a current team, or any team of a different era than that player, does OOTP adjust the stats accordingly? In other words, would a batter from 1968 hit better in 1998, or would a batter from 1998 hit way fewer home runs in 1908?

3) Does OOTP 19 have access to older stadiums, or older dimensions of current ones? I'm thinking of Fenway Park in 1916, with that 505 foot center field distance, or the Polo Grounds, as examples.

Thanks for your help.
