That is, unless you're about to come back and tell me that there is an option for that!  |
Not missing at all. When you create a historical league one of the options is for random debut. When you select this option, your initial draft will be filled with players from all era's. Players in the initial draft will be show up at all different ages---So, you might get a 22 year old Babe Ruth or a 36 year old Ruth. This is done so your league has a proper age distribution. Following your first season, each future draft will be populated with random players from all era's of the game, but these players will debut at the age they made their real life MLB debuts.
You can select a beginning year for players to debut and a maximum year. For example, if you want players from no earlier than 1901, just select 1901 for your minimum. I personally exclude the players from the 1800's as they tend to perform rather video game for my taste.
