Well, I have to do it all by hand. Let's say 1906 has just ended. I start a new historical league for 1905. Then I dump all the players into the free agent pool, and sign them onto their correct teams. [I'm not using the financial system.] Then the free agents that are left are eligible to be drafted. [Obviously, they're mostly players who retired in that season. So you end up drafting an old Jesse Burkett, and watching him get younger and better....]
But I also know of people who want to do 'greatest team' leagues, and they can't import teams from the 1800's.
Since this would seem to be ridiculously simple to fix, especially for the team-import function, I hope someone takes care of it in a patch....
