Some Historical Settings Recs...

Mister_G · 08-10-2022, 12:09 AM

After playing about 30 years of a fictional sim with real players, I decided things weren't perfect enough for me so I'm starting over!

Been going deep on research to see how the game has changed over time, thought maybe some friends could help me along...

I'm looking to fill in some gaps with the rules below. When did they start historically, when did they change and how did they change? Some of these are also more preference or wild guesses...

Gate Share
Revenue Sharing
Luxury Tax
Guaranteed Contracts
Multi-year contracts
Contract Length Max
Waivers
Draftee Bonuses/Contracts
Free Agent Rules: Super 2, Arbitration, Compensation, etc.
Injury Frequency
Fatigue
Trade Frequency

Any help would be awesome!

Found alot of stuff. Still missing how waivers/DFA have worked in the past. When did they start, how did lengths change? Also any advice on fatigue and injury settings throughout history?

I would love to see what you find with this stuff. It would help me out with the realism of the historic league I run. We are about 1 year away from the dawn of free agency.

Thanks
