Draft in Historical now ON by default

Giants44 · 03-21-2017, 06:39 PM

this use to be off by default (which puts the players on their historical accurate teams) but now appears to be one.

just mentioning so if you want it OFF (as I do) then make sure to do it in preseason (because if you dont notice until draft time it is too late)

and B to start discussion of if historical players would prefer this be off as I would. (not that big of a deal since now that I know, I will uncheck box when setting up new leagues.

I agree that this should probably default to off. Though maybe that's different now that we have the Negro League players?

Thanks for the info. I'd prefer off as well.

interesting!

do those players appear in the draft? I have only played a few seasons and have been buying players directly from their other teams. Didnt think about the fact that those players might be draft eligible. If so that might change my thinking.
