OOTP just pretends non-AL and NL leagues and players never existed. Sorta like it pretends no players played prior to or after their major league career.
See, this is where I am getting confused. Players like Gavvy Cravath and Lefty O'Doul made their MLB debuts, played on neither AL nor NL teams for a few seasons, then returned to another MLB team. If there are no seasons missed in their neutralized stats, but the leagues they played in (and therefore, they) do not exist in OOTP for those seasons, what happens to them during those years when they were historically out of the AL/NL universe?

Do they stay on their original team, with stats projected based on what they did in the leagues that don't exist? Do they vanish until they are supposed to re-appear on their next MLB team? Do they remain, but with stats projected (3-year recalc here) based on their next 3 seasons that were on a MLB team? Do the answers for the neutralized stats apply to their historical stats?
