I think I'm going to go with this number of teams to ensure I have enough players:
6 - 1871-78
8 - 1879-81
12 - 1882-1900
follow MLB the rest of the way
Then I think what I'll do to get over the no real transactions if you start a league in the 19th century is take all of the stats from my 1871-1900 sim, export it and modify the .csv's used by the game when importing history and start a new historical game in 1901. Assuming that's just an export/cut and past exercise. Maybe that would be too much work.
