Importing Rookie Class

CanadaKid · 06-09-2006, 02:59 PM

I'm new to this game and might i first say it is great but a little overwhelming at times. I was just curious as i've looked through the manuals and either it's not there or i just missed it. Sorry if i just missed it but i'm using the lahman database and i was wondering how do i import the rookie class for the draft each year. I'm starting in 1993 and was wondering how do i get the actual players to import for the 1994 draft class if this is possible.

If you have the "place rookies with correct teams" option turned on, on feb 15 they will be placed on the correct rosters. If you just want to be able to draft-then make sure you have the amature draft turned on and don't check the "place rookies" box and the rookies from 1994 will be in the 1994 first year players draft.

Be warned, populating your draft pool this way will give you players to draft during what would have been their rookie year-not their draft year.

That helps a bunch. I saw that option but just wasn't sure if come draft time they would be in there even if i didn't designate them to their rightful draft team.
