He will not import properly throughh the Historical option. I noticed he is in the database when you start OOTP15 with Opening Day Rosters so I am trying to copy him into my current league.

Thanks.
The OOTP15 database has those players in it but they are not importable by player IDs. What you have to do is this: Start a test league with the MLB quickstart, then schedule a fantasy draft and all the amateurs will be available for draft. Export the rosters then and everyone should be there. Open the exported text file with Excel, delete the players you don't want, then save the file as a .csv file. Then, go to your OOTP 15 league and create the same number of free agents. Make sure you give all the created FAs the same age or position so they can easily be sorted. Once you've created them, export that league's rosters and open it with Excel. Sort out the created free agents and then copy and paste all the test league's rookies' info EXCEPT their player IDs over the created free agents' info. The reason you don't copy/paste the player IDs is that the tets league rookies won't import if their player IDs aren't in your OOTP 15 league database. Once you've done all that, save the OOTP 15 league rosters as a .csv file in the game's import_export folder and re-import into your game. All the rookies should appear. Hope this helps.
