Help with correct sim settings

[RBPD5015]

Guys,

I want to start a historical league using the 1985 Oakland A's I then want to switch to the Florida Marlins in 2002. This is the way my baseball history went so I want to follow that. I have lots of questions though

I want to play every game game by game.
I want players to go to their original teams
I want them to retire when they decide not like in real life
I want the league to auto expand

Now here are my questions

When I did this to start it made me have a rookie draft half way through the first season. Since I want rookies going to their correct teams, I want this turned off right?

I wish I could have a farm league to develop players, but I hate have a minor league team with 4 players and the rest ghost players. I also dont want fictional players. So I guys I should go with the reserve roster?

What happens when the league expands, how does the league make sure the new teams get the same players they got during that draft?

Any other thoghts or suggestions. I also remember a utility where it would change your logos based on the year of your league, is that still around?

Any help would be great
