I had started this whole photopack originally with a ready-to-go 1970 season. All of the minor leagues teams (you can find their names in the file) are correct with a couple of exceptions. Without looking it up, I know there was at least one co-op team being shared at some level by one of the newer teams (Royals, Brewers, Padres, Expos), so I split them up andcreated a fictional minor league team for one of the co-ops. And in one case, one of the teams didn't have a AA team (can't remember which off the top of my head, think it was the Expos), so I created one to make the league work.

Bottom line is that I was having a bitch of a time trying to get the ratings to work out properly. I may revisit it again at some point. But it's down the list of things that I would like to spend my time on. Maybe someday OOTP will make it so that you plug in the stats, and it will generate the proper ratings. Then we'll have lots of ready to go seasons to play with.
