Hello all!
An upgraded version of something i released a couple years ago on ootp 22. I have put about 350 hours of work into this quickstart and it has been amazing. Since last posting ive added 1800 players and re-did all existing players running and stealing ratings and also all pitchers babip ratings as this is new.

What's included?
5000 all-time greats in the uniform of the team they are most known for with hand built ratings from their best 7 year stretch of playing. Among them are 20ish cuban greats and 250ish negro league era stars MLB players from the 1870s (but also pre mlb Jim Creighton) all the way to this past season's new stars like Elly De La Cruz and Gunnar Henderson.

What's it for?
It is set up to run twelve best of 9 series in tournaments within the game. Pick your players, play out the series. If you ever played Cadaco all-star baseball as a kid (the one with the spinners) that is the inspiration for this game. Just two teams of players I love facing off.

The teams that come with the game are all incomplete and strictly there so that players appear in that team's era specific jersey when playing in the tournaments. But do whatever you want with it.

What else can it do?
You can release all the players, delete the teams and create leagues for the players. delete all the teams except the 70s and 80s teams and create a 70s and 80s players only league. Use it to create one league with 100 teams. Do whatever you like.

How were the players made?
Their stats from their best 7 year run were compared to that 7 years majors stats and normalized against a more modern run environment so nobody was built with just their straight stats. No one will ever agree on all the ratings and certainly the game itself considers certain things more important than others for overall ratings.

Here is a video showing all of the players included in the quickstart:
