Sorry, been busy with a couple other projects, but I will keep going with this as soon as things settle down a little.
BaseballMan, yeah Devlin, as well as George Hall, Al Nichols, and Bill Craver all got suspended in real life and then were blacklisted, never appearing in another game following the 1877 season. I've edited Lahman's database so everyone lasts about as long as they did in real life. Spalding really did dominate the early National Association, as he has in my league and then retired following the 1877 or 78 season to run his sporting goods empire with his brother.
perez24, thankyou
swampdragon, I haven't noticed any fatigue issues (sure the guys are still listed as tired, but haven't had trouble pitching on no rest). As for adding another league, it's covered really well in another thread which unfortunately I can't find, but basically involves creating a new league (2 leagues, 4 teams each) and then copying all files except the records and league file over. Then it's just a matter of adding 6 new teams (in the AA's case) and rearranging them. You also have to manually reenter records as there's a problem with copying that specific file.
