With the normal feeder team calculations, a standard MLB setup with 35 rounds needs about 175 feeder teams.

This means that 700 feeder teams (the NCAA mod plus an equivalent HS feeder) is enough to supply 960 teams. This means that, if the indy leagues averaged 12 apiece, you'd need 60 indy leagues to soak up all the players.
If that's right and I try it, my computer may explode.

My biggest Q is how you setup Indy Leagues financials ???
Could you put it on this board. You have to have these teams to sign players and sometimes players with long MLB careers. Many end their careers in the Indy Leagues.
I have so far found it hard to make these Indy Leagues workout when they just doesnīt like or can sign players.
Itīs a shame OOTP canīt handle Indy Leagues better.
Then with a huge feeder league systems, NCAA and HS, the Indies shouldnīt have new players popping up, but concentrating on non-drafted, not signed players that are available to MLB.
