Definitely use the fictional players. Since the league starting year is 1900, if you import from Lahman you will begin getting 2 of the same player in the league, for instance in 1905 you would get another Cobb. So just use fictional players for the draft, and I would suggest limiting it to 3 rounds so that the original players don't get pushed out of the game or onto the bench.

Remember to use the "Recalculate using previous season's totals" before the beginning of each season to keep the league in balance. Do it right before Spring Training.
