Or I know say the Japanese league by default has a foreign player limit but its minor league does not. So it gets a lot of foreigners. Now I'm not sure if that is IRL correct or not.
The only default league that I know foreign are banned in is Cuba but they don't allow outside free agents anyway.
I don't do any fictional leagues and just stick with all of the built in leagues. So I've only noticed in Japan they sign foreigners and put them in the minors.
Oh I also don't think the "spring training" roster counts as well because it usually calls up the team's entire reserve roster so I've seen Japan teams have >4 foreign players during spring training. Then they usually get bumped to reserve or minors.

In reference to your position on whether IRL foreign players have a limit...turns out
within an organization they do not.
Given I like to promote homegrown talent creation moreso than providing overseas opportunities in past sims I'd still probably cap the *** minor league setup at 4-5 foreign players per team.
