I dunno. If I add MLB 2024, then I assume it would be using 2024 Opening Day rosters. What else could it use?
It's actually pretty easy. Here is a step-by-step from the OOTP Launch screen.
Start a Fictional League game:
1) Select "New Game"
2) Select "New Custom Game" -- > no to challenge mode
3) Select "Fictional"
4) I selected "1 subleague, 1 dvision, 4 total teams" just to keep that league small
5) Select "Next Step"
6) On the right, Unselect all of the minor leagues so that you don't have to delete them later. Select "Next Step"
Add MLB 2024 to your game:
7) Select "Advanced Mode"
8) Select "Add New League" ==> Use League Creation Wizard
9) Select "Real World" ==> 'Major League Baseball' should be checked
10) Select "Next Step"
11) Select "Finish"
Make sure your Fictional League starts in early January:
12) On the left side of the screen, select "Fictional Baseball League"
13) On the right side of the screen, select "Options"
14) Set Season Start Date to something like Jan-10-2024
Start the sim:
15) Select "Start Game"... check 'Play in Commissioner Mode'
The game should start.. the date should be Jan-1-2024
Now to delete the Fictional League:
16) For the "Fictional Baseball League", go to "League Settings"
17) Select "Delete This League" and confirm.
18) For "MLB", go to "League Settings" and set your Spring Training length to be whatever you want. Make sure you uncheck and re-check the Spring Training to ensure the calendar updates.
That's it.
