Just so I'm not overreacting here.

1) Does this mean that if I start, say, a Pittsburgh Pirates franchise in 1985, and I will have a 20 year old Barry Bonds on the roster of my Class A Prince William affiliate, with appropriate potential ratings befitting a 1984 first-round pick, and that the game will sim out his career? That he might flame out/suffer a career-ending injury/ etc. etc.
Yes! Guys may not be 100% on their absolute correct MiLB team, but it's pretty darn close. They won't be too far off at any rate, maybe a level high or low at worst.

Yes again. Of course for both this and your above request to work out right, you'll have to select the setting not to use recalc, but let the OOTP engine take over, but all that is completely customizable.

Yep!
