Set in Stone... MLB Players Stay with Original Franchises

Unfortunately, this thread was lost in the forums crash. I had simmed from 1876-1891... 16 seasons worth of writeups lost. The good news is I have catobase. Perhaps I will recap past seasons, but unfortunately, that is unlikely at this point. Looks like I will simply be forced to trudge on from 1892 on.

For those who did not read the original thread, my description was much better. Basically the premise of this thread is to import all players into the league with the team they originally debuted with. They will remain with that team for their entire career. There will be no free agency and no injuries (so players get a fair shot at playing out an entire career).

With this setup, Babe Ruth will be a Red Sox, Curt Schilling an Oriole and Mike Piazza & Pedro Martinez as Dodgers. Will the Yankees of the 20s, 30s and 50s still be dominant? How will teams like the 90s Expos fair? Perhaps history will be more kind to them here.

Also what will come of the Mariners with Randy Johnson, Ken Griffey Jr and A-Rod? Will the Yankees of the 2000's still be dominant without free agency?

Without any further delay, here is 1892....
