I was considering an attempt at manipulating the CSV format, but not if I am unable to get OOTP 21 to read the files.
It depends on how you set up your league to use the database. For histroical stats there are Batting.csv, Pitching.csv, and Fielding.csv. Then there are normalized versions of these named Batting-Normalized.csv, Pitching-Normalized.csv, Fielding-Normalized.csv where the stats have been normalized to the modern era. In addition to being Normalized, additional stat lines are added for players that didn't play in certain years or didn't play in the majors at all so that OOTP can better calculate ratings for players over the course of their career or calculate ratings for players that didn't ever play in the majors in real life based on how they might have played. For a better more in-depth explanation, search the forums for the Spritze-Garlon database (OOTP uses an updated version of this for it's normalized stats).

So to answer your question in a round-about way... yes.
