Finally found Burnis Wright in OOTP21. Known as Wild Bill Wright over at BB-Ref, he had a very decent career in my game, with three All-Star nods.
Another lesser known Negro Leaguer is Alonzo Perry. He picked up 2,099 hits, and 249 HR, and played in two All-Star Games.
Pedro Pages made his way into my game as well. Hadn't heard of him before. Another thing I'm noticing about these Spritze guys, is that they're really good defensively. Lots of plate discipline, and great defense. Some of them have a ton of power, too.
Finally! A Japanese Leaguer that did well in one of my leagues. Ryohei Hasegawa pitched in the 1950s, and early 1960s for the Hiroshima Carp, of the Japan Central League IRL. Went to two All-Star Games, was ROY in 1903, picked up a Silver Slugger at P, and earned a couple of rings, with the 1904 Brooklyn Superbas, and the 1911 Cincinnati Reds.
As you can see, these players can add some flavour to your leagues. I don't know if I've explained the procedure for getting them into your game well enough though, so go ahead, and ask questions, if it's confusing.
