Wonder if Padresfan will post it soon?

Only real issue I ever had with the Gambo DB for ootp8 was that starter endurance ratings for rookies was so bad for guys like Palmer and Carlton, and they never rise up appropriately.

So I am currently using that DB with ootp9, and I see the same issue.

Sadly, it's a case of damned-if-you-do, and if you don't. Because with the regular Lahman, guys import as pros and what is the sense of that? You don't draft a guy who is already a pro! So that is ridiculous. Yet with the Gambo DB for ootp8, you're screwed as regards starters.

Let me point out here that I am talking about having recalc OFF.

There really isn't a way to appropriately play the historical leagues with any DB and have recalc off, it seems.
