Done this a few times. There is no real way to keep the AI from making poor roster decisions. I've done it a few different ways, and sometimes the AI keeps big name prospects, but sometimes they drop them. Especially if I kept the minor league limits tighter (usually I try for 30 across the AAA,AA, A and went with 35 on Rookie/Complex leagues).

Your idea of keeping minor league roster limits high is probably best bet. and gradually instituting limits over the next few seasons. Maybe shortlist top 100 prospects to make sure they don't get released.

Good luck and I really want to hear how it works out. I've been contemplating starting up a 1960s historical based, but only having each MLB squad have 1 team at each level.
