It seems to me that many of the fictional players created are pretty old, many times in thier mid 30's, so you may fill the league, and because of this you must do it again in a year or two. Also the players created are generally not pitchers, so even if you have enough players, you may still ave the dreaded "not enough pitchers" error. I have tried to work around this by editing the league structure to six man rotation, then filling the league, then editing the structure back to a shorter rotation. This seems to help a bit. My next attempt at working around this will be to allow the rosters to be as high as they can go, then filling the league then dropping the roster size back to the normal number, ( either 20 -25 players, depending on the reserve size of the major league rosters).
I have bagan a historical league beginning in 1901, with minors levels from AAA to rookie league. Each league has only two teams though, and are not yet affiliated with any major league team. They are basically a place holder for when I have simmed to a point where I will take over a team ( or to a point where the database is importing more players), then I will set up the minors, probably filling in a new level avery 2 to 3 years.
By the way, I began this league with the new patch installed and am using Arod/Garlon data base.

(after a long time spying on this site, it was time for post one)
