After 4 years the Free Agency Pool has a size of 3.6k players. What are reasonable Free Agency Pool sizes and how do I keep the player count in that region?
Are the superflous amount of players coming from my feeder leagues? Is the historical import the reason? The number of draft rounds?
Under draft mode it says "416 additional players will be created for the next draft class". Why? I have read others can change this setting, but for me there is no setting available (because it is a historical league?)
Edit: I simmed 9 years now and the Free Agency Pool keeps exploding. It currently is at 7767 players.

You can create an independent league and hold a FA draft for those teams and even go as far as allowing them to be purchased by your ML teams. This will help to reduce the size of FAs as well and also allow them to play some baseball instead of sitting around in the FA pool doing nothing. BUT yes I agree the primary reason is feeders and for those leagues that use INT finds - make sure you minimize those if you want to help minimize FAs.
