I'm really not understanding you or maybe I'm not being clear.
To only pick from the playerson the Colt 45's and Mets is not a true expansion draft experience because it doesn't factor in the players they didn't pick that were available.
I can't start 1962 and do an expansion draft on the spot. If I do, the Mets and Colt 45's are already there. That's why I have to start in 1961 and sim that season. This is pretty common among those us of that love historical expansion. I actually found out about that trick in this forum. But it's still a lousy solution because you end up with coaches you don't want already hired and the 1961 sim is obviously not exactly accurate. I'ts not the same universe.
Not only that but especially in 1993 and 1998, the team budgets are insanely low.
I'm a little confused why you are defending this. The expansion element of the game is not very good. Maybe it's not worthwhile to fix because very few of us play it. That, I don't know.
