Toss in the Negro Leagues as an alternate, but equal, league where we could play them & majors, and then play a WS between them .... wow !!! .... as of now, i'm content with this version and will have to see what 18 offers when it unfolds.
I think it would be so cool if Markus, Matt, Spritze could get historical minors to work as advertised. But, that's such a huge if. The entire idea is just huge. But, Spritze already created the player database. Why not let us use the Spritze minor league player database with generic OOTP/self created minors? Sure, I would love to watch the history of the real Texas League evolve, but until that works, I would love to start in say 1921 and simply have access to the extra players Spritze has already created. Hopefully, this makes sense.
