When I get around to it, I will run a test to compare the two methods, but something about auto-calc did not go well for me.
Same here.
Though as I recall what I did was select a year and after it did its thing I then hit auto-calc which seemed to just take everything back to the statistical modifiers of the season I was using as the basis for financials/strategies, etc., not the season I wanted to use for statistical modifiers. (Basically I was trying to avoid the extremes of 1968 and ended up with the Year of the Pitcher in spite of my efforts not to.)
Ever since, I select a year for statistical modifiers (using a random selection process involving a range of 20 possible seasons, 1971-1990) just prior to the regular season starting, avoid auto-calc altogether, and so far, so good.
