Import (non-historical) players from file?

Is there any way to import non-historical players into a game from a csv file or the like?

Example: I'd like to take an existing OOTP 21 league, import it to OOTP 22, and add new (non-historical) IFAs such as Ha-seong Kim to the player pool.

I could start a new OOTP 22 game with Kim in the player pool, but then I can't hold 2021 Spring Training and I have to rebuild rosters and history. It would be much easier to add him to my current game, but I would rather not have to do so manually (as he's not the only addition).

The best workaround I can come up with is to figure out how to use the just-posted .odb <-> .csv translator to create a dummy historical database to import from, but that seems like more work than it should be. Is there any way to import directly from a csv file or otherwise automate the process of adding new players?
