So the question is why are teams without a minor league system able to sign guys to "free" minor league contracts? I think things would be more efficient if the reserve roster was treated as a 40 man (or whatever number you set it to) roster rather than a minor league system that haven't been setup.

I am going to try and set reserve limits to 15 in one of my indy leagues and follow one team as I edit all of their reserve roster players giving them actual contracts and see what comes of it.
Thanks for doing this. Anxious to see your results.
