Sorry about not being clear. I have a fictional league and imported 2017 historical major and minor league players. The plan is to convert a league which currently uses another sim to OOTP. We're playing the 2017 season right now. Next year we'd move to 2018.

First, what happens when I move a 2017 forward at the end of next year? Does the game only use 2018 season data? Is the recalc only done on historical leagues with past year, current year, and future year available?

Second, I've imported 2017 and made all the players free agents. I believe I can export those players (after the next OOTP update) change their teams info in the exported file and then import the file back and all the players will be the teams I want them to be on. I also believe this includes minor leaguers. True?

At that point I hope I can have the AI finish importing other players to teams' farm systems. Is that possible?

On another topic...in the recently released 2018 Opening Day file I saw real 2018 amateur players when I progressed the default 2018 season. How do I get those players into my fictional league so they would be available in my fictional 2017 season replay.
