Probably the info should be displayed somewhere when setting up teams

or, rather, 2 out of 4 already lost, a 3rd is down 4-1 and managed to win two games with starters at ~75% (and no way to fix this, as the team was put together with, well, four starters)

The final team got lucky and won the first series in 5 games and I happened to have drafted a 5th player that could be a starter,

despite it telling me that it was using 1969 settings.

it looks like in 2 out of those 3 cases, it was lost to a malformed team with 5 starters on 1969 settings. In one of the cases, it looks like the guy logged on early enough after tourney started to "fix" his roster to the wrong settings, as his 5th starter was still displaying the "reliever" tag and one of his starters had pitched on 4 days rest. As is appropriate for 1969, but not for PTCS using 1969 settings.

1969 has never been 4 starters in PT. it has always been 5.


1959 is the first year you can use 4. And 1917 or so is the first with 3.
