In that case, a June draft might make sense because you can actually draft players at the age of 18, when they began pro baseball. Otherwise, you should just use the default scheduling, although I usually schedule my draft after free agency, so teams have a chance to sort out their roster needs and signings before deciding which rookies to draft.
That's exactly what I'm doing.

I think I've figured out a work around. My next amateur draft is scheduled for December 5, 1989. This is the pool of players who, in real life, were drafted in June, 1990. I'm going to export the pool, reschedule the draft for June, then import the pool. Hopefully this works...
