Reason

Would give more control on user's create worlds. Further enhancing the user's ability to create their own little baseball world.

Priority

although I admit its not a must I believe the little things like this feature is what continues to make OOTP the best baseball sim out there.
Just so you know, I play this way also, but there is a work-around. Just contract (delete) the teams you want, then export the rosters. Once you've done this, hit the release all/have inaugural draft button. After doing this, import the rosters back, and viola, you're ready for your contraction draft.

It can be a little more complicated than that depending upon whether you're playing solo or not, but it works, I've done it many times. What it doesn't account for very well is the financial side of the equation.

And finally, I'd certainly support making this an option rather than having to use the work-around.
