Off, but not out of any sense of history. I tried this new feature with another league and quickly got tired of it. It's repetitive and it all depends on your owners generosity and available cash. You get into a downward spiral if you have a cheap boss and a crummy team with low attendance.

Heh, more departure from history IRL because I have these ON. Moreover, I have four levels of minor leagues WAY before they were
"invented" by Branch Rickey because I like seeing players develop with stats instead of just growing them farmlike on a reserve roster.
The only things I have consciously done historically are:
- no foreigners until mid-20th Century or later (but I certainly don't bar "colored' players)
- no DH until the last quarter of the 20th Century
- allow the game to evolve and expand the league, and
- allow the game to set historic finances, strategic tendencies, and stats totals.
I even have had the World Series every year since 1871! I'm not much of an historical simmer, I guess.
Edit: But, I am having fun!
