BaseballMan, good idea, the numbers I gave were just off the top of my head.

BasicGuy, In the early years there were a few teams that I didn't include (1875 comes to mind when there were 12 teams, 4 of which never completed even half the season). For those players I left them in the free agent pool until they played for one of the "big 8". If they only played one season as many did, I changed their age to 41 and for the most part they retired the next season(I did this when teams disbanded too). A few times I drafted a pitcher so I could at least have 2 man rotations on each team, but position players would sit out.
