Players missing a year
How is this thought to work ?
Take Cecil Fielder. I started a setup in 1989. The year Cecil Fielder was playing in Japan. I was almost expecting him to be unavailable in 1989 and in 1990 pop up in Detroit. He signed with Detroit for the 1990 season IRL.
Now Cecil popped up as a FA in 1989 and signed with Royals.
I did not use Historical Trans, since I always like to play with full minors.
Hideo Nomo popped up late 1994 and signed MiLB contract with Dodgers, but by opening day he was only signed at a minimum MLB-contract. Hardly very real after leaving the Japanese League.
Felt like was considered by the AI as a plain rookie out from College.
