at the least, you can force them to never make the MLB level in your world. check box in settings cna keep them in minors.

i have never looked, BUT, if there is a column that denotes fictional vs non-fictional player in teh player's export, you can easiler select and delete the rows that match "fictional" value (0 or 1 i'd assume) -- export with headers. it's possible that info is not included in teh exported data, though.

oh, maybe by doB you can accomplish the cleaning even if it is not there. the fact that mlb stats don't exist could also be the red flag needed as far as exported stuff... could take the playerID's from the exported stats and search and delete from players export etc....

i wouldn't delete from exports.. unless copied over same playerids... but can change their name to ZZZZZZ and then delete in game for all match names etc. or make all ratings "5/200" and no one else willb e that unique. etc... lots of ways to do it in game en masse without much effort.
