I'm still dreaming of my fictional historical idea:

How about a Historical Fictional option? What if OOTP made a historical database for our fictional universes where we could use that feature to go back to relive and change baseball history? This would be especially useful for us long term simmers. Let's say we're in 2020 and we'd like to go back and start a historical game in 1985 using our fictional database. How cool would that be? Did a star player who was looking like he may break records go down with a career ending injury? Now you can replay those years and change history! Relive or watch dynasties change. Star fictional players may end up being busts. etc..Taking it one step further, how about historical fictional mode using random debut? I'm getting ahead of myself here but the possibilities would be endless.

Basically my thought is the exact same concept as the MLB historical mode, but with fictional leagues. With MLB historical, you can go back and play with a young Babe Ruth, Barry Bonds etc.. I'm 120+ seasons into a completely fictional MLB with all fictional players. Looking through the leagues history has me thinking how cool it would be if the game could make a historical database of this particular fictional league. This way, I can go back and play the 60's/70's etc.. and see how things would play out differently.

So basically the exact same as historical MLB mode, but with a database created completely from a previously simmed fictional file. The game would treat that file like it was THE official history of the game in our universe. We could go back and replay with those specific fictional players like we would do in fictional MLB mode. Have a favorite fictional player that retired 20-30 years ago? Now you'd be able to go back and relive those seasons with that player in his younger days and see if his career would play out the same.
