Expanded AFL?

Has anyone expanded the Arizona Fall League in their saves?

Theres a rumor that MLB will this year as a result of COVID, but im trying to figure out a realistic way of doing so.

I have expanded by 2 teams in a save I had where I expanded the MLB by 4 teams. It worked just as it did before, but you need to make sure that you affiliate the new teams with MLB teams or they won't get players.

Thanks for replying, but that wasnt exactly the expanding i was talking about. I guess i left the wording too vague.

What I meant was, has anyone expanded the AFL to 15 or 30 teams to give each MLB team a fall league team for their prospects, since the MiLB league was cancelled.

What I think ill end up doing though, is just create one "MLB Fall League" and then rename the divisions "Arizona Fall League" and "Florida Fall League" and add in the MLB teams to their respective decision based on Spring Training location.

Theres a rumor that MLB might do that to give prospects some PT because of the cancelled seasons, so I want to replicate it in OOTP.
