But yeah, you can do it. It still requires a lot of manual work to get still integrated in-game, but...still, it's pretty much the gold standard for this sort of thing, so TL;DR yes, it's totally possible to create a viable league this way but you're going to need to spread the work out amongst a commissioner and some other leadership within your league because it's too much work for one person.

Even in fast-sim where we still did most of our stuff in-game, the commish job became pretty big, so...that's the critical thing here is to have your leadership team and people you can trust to make it all happen.
Wow, the FOBL is still going strong. Thanks for posting the link. I took a little trip down memory lane. All these years later, with every pitcher I acquire, I am hoping to find my next Danillo Jones.
