I am adding the Teams the Year before they are set to enter the League and not changing the schedule... They still show up in the league information in the almanac, but don't play any games. Not the Ideal way, but at least they get to participate in the draft and can also sign some free agents....I also fill them with crap fictional players in case they can't fill all their spots. (Set Player creation modifiers at .010 for all attributes) These guys get released quick and never compile meaningful stats. Not ideal, but it works well enough.

The thing that is preventing from playing until the patch is the way the Pitchers skill deteriorate after age 30 in Historical sims...it is especially frustrating that this happens while Hitters continue to be productive into their late 30's and early 40's...even with the aging modifiers tweaked substantially.....
