Well, only one (or two... I can't tell) are specifically using 1905. But those Cubs have some dominant pitching. I think you can find some better than average (for the era) fielding in that time frame, too.

Up to the update is was a popular and successful strategy, in some themes, to field a Cubs franchise team... put them in Wrigley, but use the deadball pitchers to go with your high average and high hr/9 batters. Best of both worlds. I'm facing a team like that in the playoffs now.

The deadball pitchers' effect on fielding has probably finished off that strategy.
