Yeah, there's quite a bit of that sort of thing in the NA years. But starting in 1877 (and even for much of 1876) the NL had a schedule where games were set up on a much more orderly plan. Games were generally scheduled for Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
The 1885-1891 period in OOTP will use schedules almost identical to the real world ones except that I'm going to remove some of the split doubleheaders in them since the cities used for OOTP's version of those years is a little different.The difficult years are 1871-1883 where things largely have to be created from scratch while trying to capture the flavour of the schedules of the time. The 1892-1900 years will probably use a variant of the schedules from seasons just before or just after that period.

I'm not sure, I'm not really a stats guy. But there are stats guys looking over the pre-1901 period with an eye to putting in the proper defaults.
