Spritze · 12-20-2012, 03:33 PM

There will be a new Spritze db tomorrow that handles the team issue. The teams you see are the ones I use, not what comes via the Lahman. My bad, sneaked in on me.

BUT

1) The Spritze db is only fully complete 1871-1900, partially complete 1901-1974, not at all complete 1975-2011.
2) All players become available at 18 (or earlier if their real debut was earlier)
3) All players are expected to progress through the draft or as independent agents or to go to college or join the military or whatever path is chosen for them.
4) All players have MLE's for each of these available years, this allows them to progress via re-calc in an orderly manner.
5) The Spritze db is not compatible with historical transactions or lineups for obvious reasons. (The inclusion of lifetime Minor League Stars, Japanese, Korean and Negro League players are at the top of that list).

The best way to use the Spritze db is to start in 1871 and have a draft. Everything else is up to you.
