Hi everyone.

I loke the idea of starting a random debut historical league in 1865 or 1871 but what 16 teams, 5 man rotations, 5 man bullpen, 25 man rosters.

But whenever I start a random debut in 1871 it won't let ne change the specs, even when I click in another season - say 1978 - for the stats and specifications.

Anyone know how I can play in calendar year 1871 or earlier with a random debut historical league, but have the statistics context and strategy environment I want?

Thank you.
