Hi All. I'm wanting to do a replay of baseball from 1871 to as far as the database I use will take me. Much like Eckstein4Prez is doing, with the actual teams each year, etc. I was wondering what the general consensus is for which DB to use? The one that ships with OOTP 11, or one of Spritze or Gambos DBs? I only want real players, no fictionals. And I would prefer if they entered the league when they did in reality. So, if I wanted to play with only players that played in MLB from 1871 to present, which would you suggest? Also, if I decided that I want to play the same type of game, but allow players from other leagues (Negro League, Japan, etc.) that may have been playing, just not in MLB, which would you recommend? Thanks guys!
