Here are some answers based upon the default MLB setup. Of course you can play any league you want. Or fictional/fantasy league or different countries. Countless universes can be created. But I tried to give general answers to the MLB/Milb setup.

1. No split squads you have a Spring Training roster and all your starters play a couple innings and get subbed out. You can set spring training roster size.

2. Rookie seasons starts are different depending on the league. If you are playing a real world MLB and Milb setup. They have different start dates. As the Dominican leagues start before the other rookie ball leagues. Also not every MLB team has the same amount of rookie teams. Some teams have 2 some have 4 or 5 rookie ball teams in different leagues.

3. Based upon their stats and ratings. Everyone has their own way of doing it.

4. MLB roster is 25 guys. Say 13 bats and 12 pitchers or 12/13 is the most common real teams run.

5. When you start 2018 it is right before opening day. You can't rewind time and start after the WS 2017.

6. Once spring training ends your MLB team has to cut rosters down to 25.

7. You can pick the roster for spring training default size is 60

8. You can sign draft picks as soon as you draft them. Or at least make them an offer they might negotiate for a week or so.

9. If you can't sign a player you drafted rounds 1-3 get a supplemental pick the following year. Those players can't sign with other teams they typically go back into the draft.

10. Every year there are some international free agents of different ages you can sign them and throw them right into rookie ball at 16 if you want. Some people do that others wait till there 20. Depends on how you want to play and your universe

11. Only players that dont get stats are the ones in your international complex. IF they are in your minor leagues they are getting stats

12. You can create different tournaments if you want. A lot of players recreate the Arizona Fall League thats for high minors and not the rookie ball leagues. But its your world.

13. There is the World Baseball Classic you can add it to your universe or add any tournament or fall/winter ball league you want.
