Sounds fun, but there are some issues with historical play, as already noted here - plus I don't know how many times I've read on these boards that "the AI doesn't know names, just ratings" - so be careful pushing the "real players" aspect of the game until certain issues have been resolved (PhillieFever mentioned most of them).

If the key issues aren't addressed, the 1929 Yankees or 1992 Yankees or whoever may not accurately resemble the teams they were in real life...which may be an automatic turn-off for potential new customers attracted to the "what-if" style of play.
