Of course, Arod and Garlon's work, like mine is branched off Ankit's original work so the goal is all of our work is produce players who act like their historical counterparts. What you want out of your OOTP experiences should determine which database you choose for a particular league.

I personally love the way Arod/Garlon;s databases perform on the major league level - especially on-line leagues(which is why I have used some of their ideas - with their permission) in my own DBs, if you like a more in depth and larger scale experience in solo play mine may be a better choice. Lahman itself is a perfect medium between the two options.
oops yeah i mean to say it was meant for the recalc feature. I just dont really like the recalc feature, although a lot of other people like it. I like doing historical leagues, but without the outcome too predetermined.
