This seems like the obvious method, but it may give unfair advantage to those with big seasons over those with consistent excellence (Dazzy Vance maybe rated better than Maddux or Spahn, for example). Has anyone tried other methods like taking a 2nd or 3rd-best season? 5th? How have you picked from players with multiple peaks like early Bonds vs. late? (whoops, Bonds is no hall-of-famer).

Also, I'd just like to hear more generally what has worked best for people in this style of game.

Thanks.

When I import I use based players performance on remaining years and I import them as rookies, I use fielding and pitching for career. This gives a player like Tim Raines the ability to play both 2B & LF
I have had no luck with Spahn in 3 different leagues. If you import him from 1942 he tends to become a reliever for his entire career. Gotta use Peak Seasons for him otherwise after 2-3 years he will also become a MR. and import him from 1946.
The guy attached is a clone of Spahn, so things are litle different then the actual player but this is basically what Spahn did in my All time Greats league from his rookie year on. i have edited Spahns best seasons for this guy the last 3 years and the Mets pitching is stacked.
