If I play every season with actual line-ups and transactions, is there any way to also include minor leagues? Especially AAA. If Don Aase of the Sox starts the year in the minors then gets called up, I would love to be able to call him up from Pawtucket. Or demote a player to Pawtucket. Of course the big question is would I have to recreate every player myself to make it real or does this exist somewhere and can be imported?

If it does exist, then I have another scenario. If Dave Stapleton played for Pawtucket from 1977 until he got called up in 1980, would I be able to have a minor league system that he was part of until '80 and that would be reflected in the almanac (having not played a season, not sure if minor league stats are reflected in the alamanac).

And finally, if I want to do the 1977 amateur draft, would I be able to select the players that the Sox actually picked and assign them to the minors? For instance the Sox picks in 1977 were: Round-by-Round Picks: 1:Andrew Madden, 2:Bobby Sprowl, 3:Scott Sullivan, 4: Erwin Bryant, 5:Mark Baum, 6:Marshall Burk, 7:Richard Parr, 8:Roger LaFrancois.. Most of them never made it so they would live in the minors. But using Sprowl as an example would he be available in 1977 or not until the year before he was a rookie?

Again thanks for all the help. Wish you all worked for the DMV, life would be a lot easier!!!
