Overview?
The original neutralized db submitted to Marcus contained a few Negro and Japanese players. They were dropped from the neutralized db included in the game. Most of the rest of Garlons adaptations like gap seasons and missing war years are in the game version.
So the Mod Garlon/Spritze neutralized db is the same as the game one with the addition of the Negro and Japanese players and it has Garlons fielding neutralizations included as well. It also includes any other items dropped from the originally submitted version, of which I think there are none.
The mod Spritze db is not neutralized in any way, contains many more players and player seasons, does have the gaps and missing war years filled in using the same process as the in-game neutralized db and does assign players to a single team. It also has stretched some careers as noted in the readme file to allow for easier 1800's game play as well as to avoid the 34 year olds in the draft class challenge the standard game included db has. This db's draft classes are composed of 18 to 19 year olds for the most part, which allows for minor league player development and to my mind more fun especially as I always play as a minor league manager. With recalc on these young players progress nicely and generally follow their normal historical career arc. With recalc off one can attempt to develop these young players in a more challenging way.
