Status: offline 		Where is the option to "simulate historical pitcher era" and can I change an association over once it has started to this option to get accurate CG's in the early 1900's?

Yes, if you wanna experiment with altering the XML.

I'm good up to 1.18, I think the most CG's I had in 1901 was about 15, and only had 1-2 pitchers over 300 IP. I'm running a sim through 1920 today, I'll let you know how it ends up.

Status: offline 		I've gotten through 1920, and very few pitchers have thrown over 300 innings (2). One guy had 301.1, and one guy had 300 exactly. It was well the norm to throw way over 300 and sometimes 400 in the early 20th century, so the dead ball xml may need some tweaking.

Status: offline 		IMO this is still the one area that is lacking in Historical Sims. Right now I think the number of complete games in the DB era is about half what it should be so I hope you can look at this further Shaun. Pretty much every other detail in terms of Deadball era simulations is pretty solid though....thanks again for your constant updates in response to these forums.

Agreed, I'm seeing very good stats on offense in accordance with the era.

j/k

I pretty much everything in my mid-60's league, stat-wise, except the CG stats (and correspondingly, the IPs, but not as bad).

I am going off of a fictional league here, so this may not help much but...

I have actually seen BA's go up during the 20's, as well as offensive production overall. ERA's are up, and CG's are down (although probably too low considering that the dead ball era CG's were already low.)

Mine's fictional as well.........wonder what gives. I'm simming up to 1945 overnight, have to see what came up when it's done.

I am curious as to what you HR's and RBI's have looked like (for the league leaders) through the 20's and how that compares to before that decade?

My HR's were low, but I appear to finally be coming out of the 'dead ball' era as homers are on the rise. Still haven't hit the 30 mark for a guy but compared to 6-8 for the league leader 10 years earlier I am just happy to see the rise right now. (I am in 1931 and have not adjusted the sliders at all). RBI's is one thing I have always thought was a little odd, since I am just now starting to get guys to go over the 100 RBI mark, and that is 1-2 guys a year in the whole league. Seems like RBI's just get spread around a bunch.

But yeah, as I said, offense is definetly up for me overall compared to the first 20 years of the league. I started in 1902.

Won't copy and paste........but in 1937, ba's high 230's, low 240's, era's high 2.8, and the other league 3.06. Season leader in HR's all time is 25, career 173.

Thanks. Here is some info for my career, I have two numbers for eac category to show the two leagues #'s.

1902 - League BA .257/.256 League ERA 2.99/3.06
1916 - .243/.244 and 2.64/2.54
1930 - .251/.250 and 3.51/3.47

HR record for a season is 25, just set in my last year finished, 1930. All top 5 HR leaders where from 1930 actually, with the rest of the top guys from the 20's.

Keep in mind what your stadiums are also. That is one thing I did do, was shorten up a distances to the right/left field walls. I didn't go crazy, but I figured having 360 to the left field wall that stands 10 feet was a thing my league would move away from in the 20's.

That may have had some impact on my numbers I am sure. Other then that, I have not touched the sliders or anyting else.

League 1 (1930-1942): .236/2.81, .231/2.77, .235/2.74, .230/2.66, .243/3.01, .240/2.99, .241/2.95, .237/2.90, .231/2.77, .232/2.87

League 2: .227/2.74, .229/2.72, .229/2.71, .237/2.94, .239/2.89, .234/2.81, .236/2.86, .237/2.86, .241/3.06, .239/.286, .239/3.02, .235/2.94

Wonder what gives???? AND, the guy that has the highest 4 season of single season HR's was drafted at the age of 30?? Is that common in fictional leagues?

Well, not sure why your offense is still down. That's odd.

As for the 30 year old being drafted, it is kind of common. There is usually a 28-31 year old every year it seems, and he usually is already a pretty good player. I kind of look at it as a foriegn player being drafted......

When I autosim, I check the box and make all the parks neutral.

Status: offline 		It may be a fictional player issue.  I started in 1920 was real players.  In 1925 the league average was 275, by 1930 it was 283 and in 1933 it was 293.

I have 3 60 home run seasons, 2 by Babe Ruth and 1 from Wally Berger (1932).  Mel Ott has the only other 40 HR season in 1931.  I have put the teams in their real ball parks except for the Yankees who are in a current version of Yankee Stadium instead of the older version that had the deep center field.

If I can figure it out, I'll try to post my almanac online.
