That was answered "no" in post 2. The follow up question was unclear, hence our questions back.

There is a way, maybe. Simply start a historical league 2014 using the data drom the Lahman DB. I think the game can still do that. The issue will be getting the players to the right rosters.

That's why roster sets are not freely available. Hundreds of man-hours go into them.
