Fantasy league (mlb) inaugral draft issue

[RichQueso]

Hey all, I'm new here.

I've played since OOTP 16, so I have some experience with the series. I decided to spice things up and wanted to try out fantasy leagues, where there are no real players. So I set up my game, entered, and started my inaugural draft. Over 6,000 players and over 270 rounds. I got to 60 before I gave up and auto drafted the rest. Looking at my roster, I've never seen my minors so filled with players. Is there a way to limit the amount of players in the draft and to not completely fill my minors?

i think i posted the same issue, if i am reading your post correctly.

requirement: Real MLB players - 'new custom game' with real world setup for sure, i don't use quickstarts enough to know, but it should be the same anytime you start with real players.

scheduling FA or inaugural draft will also include every single pre-made amatuer player that you cannot see in FA lists etc... i think you can export something to edit them but that could be a lot of work, lol. the game includes ~5 years of real amatuers. (what i was thinking was export, cut non-mlb players and paste to a temp file. import back into game without those players... then do the draft. afterward, export again, re-add the players cut from the list and import the full list.

if there are other 'included' non-mlb players from real life, then they will likely also be in either of those draft-types.

So I make a custom game with non-mlb players (amateurs?), delete them all, then start an inaugural draft? I'm not too tech savy, so could I manually just delete them all?
