1 year vs 3 year re-calc?

In a league with trades turned on, what would be the best setting to use? I'm leaning toward turning the amatuer draft off and just letting players go to their original teams. I want the AI to start their best players. Am I right in assuming I will get better results using 3 year when it comes to guys that were injured for large parts of a season?

Is it best to just use the default settings for the adjust pitchers/batters & weaken with less than options?

What about the random lefty/righty splits? Seeing random makes me wonder if I should just leave that off?

One last question. I can't make up my mind about the retire as in real life and miss seasons options. Leaning towards not choosing the miss seasons, but choosing the retire. I know I will have to start my league with injuries on very low, but I would like to eventually be able to have injuries on and set to normal. I love the idea of seeing what if's when it comes to star players playing past their real careers, but don't want to deal with a bunch of fringe guys clogging up rosters. Will rosters grow to the point of being able to use the normal injury setting with retire according to real life selected. Oh and this will be reserve clause baseball.

Thanks

I could very well be wrong, but I believe that if you set it to retire as in real life, negro and nippon league players will never get a shot at playing.

In my own 1911 game (currently heading into the '27 season), I have 3 year recalc, amateur draft off, and both retire and injury loss options turned off. For the most part I am pleased with the game setup.

The only thing I am starting to dislike is that I have the 'full minor league' option turned on, along with the 'block fictional players from reaching the majors' option. This results in a ton of fictional players falling into the endless waiver wire cycle; i.e., get put on waivers, get signed off waivers, then get put on waivers again - over and over.
