Creating New Baseball Universe...Ideas For Expansion Timeline?

So once I am able to download OOTPX (Can't wait!) I am setting out to create a fictional universe set sometime in the future after the MLB has for whatever reason folded. I want to start out with an 8 team league and slowly build to at least 30 teams along with 4-5 levels of minors and 1 or 2 independent leagues.

Just wondering if anyone had any ideas for a timeline of expansion and how to deal with financials if I was to start in say 1995? It would obviously need to start out without the players making millions as it would be a completely new league.

It is a pretty broad question, but whenever I have tried this in the past I have encountered problems with financials and other things.

Also, could I create a completely fictional league with real players and how would that work?

Can you be specific with the financial "problems" you've had.

You can import real players into a fictional league easily. Another option is to create a real MLB league, then rename all your teams to fictional names. You could also release all the players and have an inaugural draft.

I just don't know how to change financial settings after each season. It always gets messed up when I change them. I can't go with the game financials that change year to year because I always start out in like the 80's or 90's but with much lower salaries. So I end up having teams with way too much money or something like that.

EDIT: and about expansion and whatever...really just a timeline of MLB expansion and minors expansion would probably do.
