I have found that printing out your spreadsheet instead of trying to split your monitor screen works better and is easier on the eyes.
I have my injuries and fatigue set low. I doubt if i will increase it since i will be using historical transactions and lineups after 1901 anyway.
I would advise doing a backup for each season if you can.
It comes in handy when you make a mistake or theres a crash.
Are you using the real rosters?
I'm looking forward to seeing how Cy Young does and the 1890s Orioles are coming.

I just use my Word doc as the guide. The spreadsheet is no longer needed when simming- but the older I get you are right about the eyes.
Long ago I learned to backup. The 1884 season is so messed up I save every month.
As far as rosters go, I used to just sign everyone up on Nov 15th for the next season. With no FA everyone just sat on the reserve list. Now, I'm a bit weird, and anyone who plays prior to May 17 gets signed in the offseason. Everyone else gets signed during the season at some point. Signing days are the 1st and 15th of the month - keeps me sane and more organized. Rookies debut on date according to Baseball Reference. I only map out the starts of pitchers, I don't sorry about relief appearances. I looked and this is the first time Radbourn got 50 wins - he got 52. Short of playing out every single game, which there is no time, bench play is pretty much out of the question. That's the only downside I have left.
Again, I have played 19th century so much, it took so many times to get the amount of perfection in replay, but here I am.
