You will then have to manually check and see if each team has only 1 team per level. Not much you can do here except go one by one.

I would recommend do a few additional items as well.

1. Clean up your free agency pool for personnel. You will have increased the number by a lot after the leagues are deleted. The bad thing here is that you either have to delete them all or one by one. I usually do one by one but it takes forever.

2. Clean up each teams minor leagues. Run automanage on them first. Then put some rules to reduce the size. Maybe no one over the age of 25 in your minors. Then you can release everyone over that age.

3. If you do number 2 then you will have a lot of free agents. I would recommend cleaning that as well. Some examples would be if someone is betwen the age of 25-40 and has never played in the MLB, then delete them.

I do all this because I want a slimmer league to run.
Great advice here.

How many rounds is your amateur draft?
