Not sure if this is by design or just something that happened...

...but I couldn't help noticing that when I created a deadball era league, many of the top pitchers finished the season with stats like 42 appearances and 33 starts. I'm also seeing some of the top pitchers leading the league in saves (with like 5, as should be expected)! Awesome. TYMHKUTGW

Yup, that's the new "use SP in relief" option which is used by default if the league year is 1930 or earlier. It better models the way pitchers were used back then.

Wow! I may have to re-start my fictional league which began in the dead ball era.
