As for historical play, Markus, I wondered if you guys ever tried to put in a league waiver system for historical leagues that were pre-1960.

Back in those days if you wanted to trade a guy out of your league, like say Honus Wagner from the Pirates to the Browns, he had to clear National League waivers first. Meaning, the 7 other NL teams had to not pick him up in order for the trade to an American league can occur.

That's why players back in those days rarely switched leagues. No free agency , and trades between leagues were rare.
