Team leaderboards in historical imports are still not right

ctorg · 05-14-2007, 08:43 AM

Specifically, when you import full history for a league, teams that have changed cities will only show leaders since the city change, even though the way the teams are listed has been fixed.

For instance, if you import 1960 and look at the Dodgers' batting average leaders, you will only get players since 1958, when they left Brooklyn for LA.

As far as I can tell, there is then no way to see leaders from the Brooklyn Dodgers or the franchise as a whole.

Proceeding through history works fine. It is only when you import history that this happens.

ctorg, have you logged this? or regressed it?

I think Markus must read Baseball Digest, because that's the way they (and some other publications) handle all-time team leaders.

It hasn't been logged as far as I know, except that it was a subsection of a previous complaint of mine that was fixed (namely, that teams were showing up as different franchises in the team list as well).

It wouldn't seem as bad if the game handled things consistently this way (though I still wouldn't like it). As it is, if you start in 1901 and move forward, the record books and everything else remember franchises correctly (e.g. the LA Dodgers record book will include Brooklyn Dodgers years), but if you start later, you get the Baseball Digest method.

It's particularly bad for teams like the Angels, who have changed their name a few times without changing their basic location.

This has been claimed fixed for the third patch. If after installing the third patch (once it is released), you find this to still be a problem, please post as such in Tech Support along with the above TT number. Thanks.
