So I'm thinking about creating "shell" leagues with no real players in them (like the Frontier League, Northern League, Atlantic League, etc.) and filling them with fictional players for the first release, and going back through and doing their rosters as we progress. Obviously these fictional players will be on the same talent level as the real leagues are (about a Single A to AA level, a few players perhaps could make a ML or AAA roster one day, but not many).

Also thinking about getting a college and possibly a HS feeder in there.

However, here's my problem. I am AWFUL with logos. I really need someone to collect logos for these leagues (and the league logos themselves) and format them for OOTP use. I know Icy has done this in the past, so I haven't been able to talk to him yet, but if any of you would be interested in helping as well, that would be MUCH appreciated.

The leagues I'm planning on including initially are the Frontier League, Northern League, and Atlantic League (of Professional Baseball), American Association of Independent Professional Baseball, Canadian-American Association of Professional Baseball (CANAM) for Indy Leagues, the *** (which is done), and possibly the NCAA.

If anyone could collect these, it would be amazing. I'm about done fixing salaries/coaches/stadiums, so I'll probably release that later either LATE tonight after I get back from fireworks, or tomorrow.

Happy Fourth!

EDIT: Also, if you have any suggestions for other associations you'd like to see, feel free to throw 'em in. Golden Baseball League and United Baseball League were others I was considering.
The Mexican and Italian leagues have more than a few ex big leaguers and guys that have played in AA and AAA. Cuba is definitely a good league, but the lack of information available is a pain in the butt. The Mexican league is definitely the easiest, they have full information for the teams on MiLB.com
