Ok, So we have used Diamond Mind Baseball for our league in years past and stumbled across a really, astonishing site, CBABaseball.com, which uses OOTP. So I have downloaded the program and played around in it for a few hours now with the trial version. And have a hard time getting it to do what I want.

Is it possible to start fresh with my own format of league, with my own number of teams (say 22-26 legit teams, with each one have 2-3 teams in their farm system), and start over with a fresh draft. I basically want the league to start November 1st this year, with a fresh draft, no history (except historical stats like A-Rod at 599 hr or whatever) but with MLB and MiLB players. I don't want to load the MLB then format it all down to my specs.

Is this possible (I can't find it in the trial version)?

When we do a league draft, can ever manager log in online and make their selections in real time?

I'm sure these are very basic questions and easy to solve, but I don't want to spend $40 on the game, and not be able to do what I want. I will be having roughly 18-26 purchases of the software as well, so this is a big investment of our league.
