100 years of BB in 25 seasons

I'm interested in an historical replay league starting in 1901, Christy Mathewson's first good year. No player development, no fictional players, all players in a serpentine draft at start; lowest injury and fatigue.

At the end of the 1901 season, there would be a 50% chance the game would proceed to the 1902 season normally. If that didn't happen, there'd be a "2-12" dice roll, and the game would jump the rolled number of years, when there would be another serpentine draft of all players.

If an owner wanted to reclaim a player (with stats of the new season) he had in the last iteration of the game, and somebody else drafted said player, the old owner could reclaim said player in return for any player the old owner drafted in the same or a later round as the round in which the claimed player was taken.

The main object is to evaluate a lot of real historical players. The starting drafts would be the real focus, and would take real time. The season would be played as fast as the owners agreed, such as monthly until the final weeks.

Any interest?
