NRIs, yes. Split squad games, no. Don't need the latter. They comprise a relatively small portion of the spring training schedule in real life. Simply raising the OOTP spring training schedule to a reasonable length, such as 32 games or so for MLB, would eliminate the need for split squad games.

As I've suggested several times now, the length of spring training ought to be customizable—the length of MLB's spring training is not the same as for a minor league club for example. Make the length selectable in week-long lengths, from one to six weeks. Each week would come with its own predetermined number of games, but the user could elect to import a custom spring training schedule if they wanted a slightly different number of games.
