Independent league question

Hi, was wondering if this is possible and how to do it if it is?
So let's say I have 4 levels in my league ( real players from different era's) MLB, AAA, AA and A and I have an independent league can I set my independent league up to be where the main league does its rookie draft from?
And can I manually insert new rookies into the independent league to keep it feeding the main league?

You mean you want the indy league to be the feeder to the main league? That normally isn't how indy teams work. I guess you could set it up to be an independent feeder but you won't get good talent. If you want to do this you are talking about a feeder league not a true indy league.

You have many options when setting up an indy league. You can import an already built indy league and just go from there but many people dont want the players that come with them so they either build one from scratch or delete the players in an indy league, save as a template, an then import the blank indy league to their own.

As for having the indy league running you can either have its own draft or use the default "no players created" option so the indy league will depend on the players that are released from your own main league to replenish its rosters,

My suggestion: bring over an already built indy league with players. Don't change a thing and watch as the teams pick up players from your main league that are released or players that aren't drafted. This way you don't have to worry about filling up your team or player creation modifiers or anything.

To have you Major League draft from you independent league, go to League Settings > Rules, then under Feeding into Draft Pool of another league, select your major league from the Select fed league dropdown menu.

Now, about the rookies, I don't know, sorry.
