Is there a way to prevent this from happening? I set up my independent league concurrent with real world MLB+full minors and tinkered with the range of financials (i.e. a star player earns roughly xxxx, an average player should earn roughly xxxx, etc.) then deleted all the original players and delayed opening day by a year in hopes that the teams would fill their rosters with existing free agents from around the universe. It partially works, but there are also a lot of "minor league contracts" which I do not understand given that there is no minor league associated with this independent league (i am using reserve teams).

Separately, is there a way to encourage teams building up their rosters on contracts longer than 1 year so as to retain some franchise roster integrity and not have 50-100% turnover every year in independent leagues?
