No twisting except in very unusual circumstances which I will clearly spell out.

I think I know the answer to this but just for clarification-if you have a player page and the player does not have a sim season for one or more of those seasons,I assume you can't use him for that season? To be specific,Hal Breeden is 1971-75 but does not have a sim season for 1971-so I can only use him and teammates from the 72-75 seasons?
I used to make you use only the sim seasons for a player assigned to you, but that was when you got 12 pages and had more options. I'm okay with the more liberal interpretation you suggest, so you can use a 200k Hal Breeden and his teammates from '71.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! That adjustment made my life sooo much easier!! I will be using the 200k Don Collins from 1980 over the sim season from 1977. Still not great, but better.

Welcome, newarkwilder. Here you go:

1. Athletics @ Red Sox 9/17/1957
2. Yankees @ Indians 6/27/1969
3. Astros @ Tigers 5/23/2015
4. Athletics @ Angels 5/9/2000

no deadballers there, but seeing those two Yankees box scores brought back lots of childhood memories for me.

razorclams: Welcome back! Here are your six pages to build from:

1. Indians @ Black Sox 6/23/1919
2. 1933 Red Sox Uniform Numbers [any two players on their roster for that season]
3. Indians @ Athletics 8/24/1946
4. Year-by-Year Top Tens, Leaders and Records for Base-Out Wins Added (REW) - see below
5. Giants @ Braves, 4/20/1931 2nd game of doubleheader
6. Royals @ Rangers, 6/19/1991

About that weird page above: https://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/rew_bat_top_ten.shtml
You're allowed to take any four players shown on the page, which is a who's who of offensive leaders from each season back to 1925. So your team should have some great offensive stars! But those four guys are going to suck up a lot of payroll, too. I hope you drew some pitching to go with them !
what does #2 mean? I thought that I had to take 4 players?

I don't remember, what's the rule for combined seasons with a player who appears in a box score? is it only the partial season for the team playing, or is the combined season valid too?
