It's not quite that simple. You have to start your league in a year that has the same number of teams you wish to use. Try starting a 1950 league and then adding teams. You end up with not enough players in the draft pool. I tried and that is what happened.

I like using 1950 settings but I like my league to be 2 subleagues with 3 or 4 divisions of 4 teams. That means I have to start a 1969 league and adjust my game settings to 1950 after league creation.

I am going to try the 1969 league with 1950 settings to see if I have better results. I will save it as a template if it works.

ETA. That didn't work. I tried a league with an inaugural draft and without a draft and ended up without enough players to fill MLB and MiLB with both setups.

I ended up with 26 players in MLB and 8 players in AAA. Zero in AA, A, Rookie.

The league structure I am trying to use is working through Custom Setup>Historical

MLB
2 Subleagues
3 Divisions in each subleague
4 Teams in each division

AAA
AA
A
Rookie

What am I doing wrong?
