The toggle for that would be on this page, lower left but that would also (after the completion of the current season) have all the minor leagues set up for the team and that'd be hard to miss.

When you go to Lynn's player editor page, what year version of it is him and does that correspond to the year you are in (or about to enter if recalc occurred already) - left-hand side, middle of his editor page?
Thanks again for the reply!

Minors isn't checked. Agree that it would be hard to miss.

For Lynn, Rice, Burleson and Rhoden & Zahn (on my own Dodgers), it is 1974. For players who were previously imported (like Hank Aaron & Ron Cey), it's 1973.

I wonder if I hit the Select Year on League Totals (i.e. Modifiers) during last season selecting 1972. Which I *would not* think would somehow jump things to 1974 Debuts in the Rollover. The Historical Year is still set at 1973.

I may just need to go back to the 1970 EOS Backup and redo 1971 & 1972. I know that the 1971 --> 1972 rollover worked, so as long as to the 1-3 tweaks that I made, things should be fine. Or just restore it and run quick season sims several years out to see if it happens again.
