Historical - Team Abbrev - RetroSheet - Team Relocations
Posted: Sat Aug 15, 2009 6:12 am
If you're a Historical player who follows the RetroSheet schedules year after year, this chart may come in handy soon:
In the off-season, between the FA signing period and before Spring Training, there is a Team Abbrev box that you can
change a teams abbrev. It is located on the teams Region/Weather page. Then after Spring Training, PS will autodetect the RetroSheet
schedule.
If you should forget to change it during that window of opportunity, you will have to do it manually with a utility or MS Access.
