It sounds then like having feeders for the MLB just isn't practical - ? Unless I'm miscalculating something you need close to 200 feeder teams to cover all tiers of the minors - ?

nebradska, do you do this with the NCAA mod, or is this just something you put together yourself? I haven't figured out a way to tweak Nutt's mod, reducing the huge number of teams and conferences, without it also screwing up the organization of teams.
@Biggio509 -- thank you for the extremely detailed information - !
I'm left scratching my head over what to do though -- it seems like you need more feeders than the game can really handle for a 30-team, 7-tier minors league. But I'd like to have feeders in order to run a Stats Only MLB-type league, so that the amateur players will have some statistical history by the time they enter the draft.
