Adding minor leagues without players

I want to add some minor leagues (not one big one for the whole league, which I know you can do under league settings) with empty rosters. Is there any easy way to this?

I'm not aware. Someone else may know a way.

I would create the league.
Then use the "Release all players/clear rosters" function on the League Settings screen, available from the "Available League Actions" drop/down, hovering over "All League Functions".
The released players will be free agents.
Then from the League/Transactions screen Free Agents tab, Available Actions drop down, "Delete all free agents".

You must be commissioner to do this. Check the "Play as commissioner" check box on the Manger Settings/Control and Autoplay screen.

I would be careful to delete those players before I associate the minor league with the major leagues or any other league. Because otherwise the released free agents would be dumped in the same free agent pool as major league free agents you probably don't want to delete.

I believe if you initially create the league with only two teams, only those two teams will be filled with players. Teams added later in the League Settings/ League and Teams screen will be created without players. So you also have the option of doing that and then manually deleting the players from only two teams.

Anytime you add a new league it will be blank. Unless i am forgetting a step. I believe when i added my IBL league the rosters were blank. i know when i added a Single A last season it was blank.
Make a backup in case you mess up but you can also put yourself in commish mode and if the rosters have players you can go to each teams player list, click the top most bubble which highlights all players on the roster and right click delete.

the minor league system i just created also had no players initially. First pop up screen asked me if i wanted to fill it with fictional players. So i think the empty team(s) upon creation are void of players.

I found out if you want to have say 3 AA leagues you have to create three leagues, and just delete AA teams so each MLB team has one affiliate. I locked the AI when I was doing this.

Thanks for the answers.
