All "Major League" teams have 2 minor league teams, one "reserve" team and one "talent" team with an age limit of 21. On top of that teams have an International Complex that basically functions as a youth system. In my world there is no draft, teams acquire players through scouting and a few established international free agents that are generated each year.

In order to get the financials right and get the statistical output I want I literally had hundreds of 50+ year test runs after which I put the results into Excel sheets to recalculate the modifiers to then run another test with the new modifiers. To get this league to function the way I want was a complete and utter nightmare. In this game you have so many options, which is great, but that can also work against you as things can become very complicated.
can you post your financials? I have an extremely similar league
