Thanks for the quick reply. I should have said what I was trying to do which is to begin with the 1901 season and play each season forward thus maintaining actually transactions/rosters with as much accuracy as possible. So I am selecting the following options when creating the game;

1. Single-season replay
2. Use real historical transactions
3. Use real historical lineups
4. (No minor leagues)
5. Recalculate player ratings before each season using real stats
6. Enable automatic import of financial settings

After I simulate 1901, the Brooklyn team loses a bunch of players to Free Agency. As an example, Jimmy Sheckard who stayed with Brooklyn until 1906. Possibly I should approaching this a different way, but I was hoping not to have to create a game for each year.
