Thank you Markus for this awesome addition !

As a fan of baseball history, my favorite new feature definitely is having an easy way to let teams from different eras play against each other in a regular league.

No matter if it's one franchise over different years or selecting different teams ... easy to do.

I selected the top team for each of today's franchises and created a modern league ... this is fun !!

Thank you Markus for making this possible !!!

I have a question about this method of play. What happens when you finish a season? Do you get fictional players in the draft, or is this a one season and done deal?

I haven't finished a season yet, but I guess that depending on the starting year you'll get a regular amateur draft ...

But honestly, most of these set-up's don't make sense for more than one season - I guess it's more than "who's the best ?"

I also un-check minor leagues for the franchise set-up ...

BTW, I just came up with another interesting idea:

While all franchises have their "seasons to remember", they also have their seasons they wish they never would have happened ... my next league will be the worst teams for each franchise ... should be interesting who'll be the best of the worst and who'll be the worst of the worst.

This is good. Let us know who comes out on top (or would it be bottom?)

I have a question on this new way of picking teams from different eras. Are these teams normalized for a certain era? If not, is there a way to normalize them?

I ran a test. They are normalized for a neutral era.
