I plan to expand the league by an additional eight teams (from 24 to 32) in OOTP, so maybe I'll just say the expansion happened by the current league merging with several independent teams to create a bigger league and everyone decided that "archiving" stats, awards and achievements from the original league was the best way to maintain fairness. So basically your idea.


Guess I'll pick this up with the PFD (Alaska, baby) next month and get cracking starting in November. Something tells me that creating 32 teams, their players and stadiums will keep me pretty busy through the winter. Like you said though, I'm not a stranger to doing a lot of work for my nerdy hobby. It took me like a month to recreate all the teams and players from Super Mega Baseball 3 in 4 because there's no import tool between the two games.
Depending on how precise you are going to be with player ratings it may not take that long. I have never played Super Mega Baseball so I do not know how their rating system works. If it is number based like say 1-100, OOTP has a 1-100 setting so that could save you some time. If not, you will definitely have to play around in the editor and really learn how ratings work. Good Luck. Admittedly, I'm a serial world builder so I personally would consider this a fun project.
