For the rare German player, just change his first name to Heinie!

As for Cubans, yes I know about Almeida and Marsans of the 1911 Reds. And also that they were not the first Cubans as Chick Pedroes was born in Havana, and he played for the Orphans in 1902.

Bellan was an aberration, as he was attending college in NYC. No Cubans from him to Pedroes makes me not want to make it fair so soon.

Armando Marsans is one of my greatest stories in my last league, as his base clearing triple in one WS led to the Reds only title in 60 years. He was a great defensive CF who could steal and bunt for a hit

I guess I should have Cuba as poor in 1901, fair in 1910 and then average in 1920

For Japanese players, it's Lefty O'Doul propping up the league thay will make it fair...and I have a Utopia universe, so no need to worry about the 40's for me

I am also using real players, so this is just for rare players I may add to bump up the minor leagues or when I turn on scouting and maintain hidden players, where it will draw from.

Thanks for the advice!
The Cuban one was something I needed to address
