I think if running a random debut in OOTP you are best not using the years before 1901.
Holy crap, it's not snark at all. It's the truth. I tried using pre 1901 guys and it's not for me. I have a great friend on here and he loves using the pre1900 guys. It's all a matter of what you want in your league. I don't pay attention to ratings, so I can't comment on that stuff, but I know from experience that Waddell is going to strikeout a ton of batters. Feller will too, but he may become a relief pitcher and never recover from the war years. Now that last part is snark, but it's good natured snark
