Minor Leaguers

In a historical league, if you add minor leagues, are the players in the minors actually minor leaguers from that season or are the major leaguers who just aren't on an active roster? From what I've seen, it looks like they are NOT minor leaguers. The reason I ask is, I was thinking about minor leaguers who were traded before making the majors. I have the game set to import rookies to the team they came up with. Just for example, the ridiculous Larry Anderson for Jeff Bagwell trade. If I am the Red Sox and I do not make this trade, I would not get either player since Bagwell came up to the majors with Houston.
If someone has some advice for me on how to proceed so minor leaguers will come up with the team that drafted them I'd appreciate it. I noticed the 2008 Major League game has minor leaguers on it
Another related question - With rookies being automatically assigned to their original team, I don't get the extra draft pick for allowing a free agent to sign with another team. I am trying to be as accurate as possible and I'm not sure what I should be doing differently to combat these two situations.
Any advice?
