Just don't forget to reset your league's BABIP to .287 because sometimes the game gets it wrong (in the case of 1984, the game says .289, but it was really .286). I hope it works well for you, and let us know your results, either in this thread, or in a new thread in the "Historical Simulations" section of the boards. Enjoy.

Thank you very much, for assisting me with this stuff, I super appreciate it
