Unfortunately, your results for the late 19th century can't possibly be truly accurate, because the rules of baseball were so different at that time. But otherwise your stats, strategy and finances should be pretty accurate. Relief pitchers, closers, and relief usage can sometimes deviate from history too.
There are other postings on the forums that get into all the different roster, waiver, and other rules that evolved through the decades. You have to make these kinds of changes yourself, because the game does not have automatic options to change them according to history.

Thank you for the reply.
One other question, and I guess more specific to what I was asking... if I want "rosters" to be accurate... ie: the Babe plays for Boston until 1919, then the AI automatically sends him to NYA in 1920, Mr. Gehrig doesn't play for CHA, etc... do I have to manually manipulate this or is it something the computer AI does via a setting?
Thanks.
