using fictional players with MLB team names?

Is it possible to do this? (without re-typing the team names)
Thanks!

I was wondering the same thing. I would like to have the same team situations like the Yankees being rich and the Royals being poor. I don't want to go throught the work of editing the ballparks as well as the team markets. Really, who wants to play with the Bismarck Rats or whatever their default fictional names are. So far I haven't figured out how to play with the team names with fictional players. However, in an earlier post I heard someone mention that they were playing in a fictional league with MLB teams. He was pretending that the 1994 strike didn't end. So good luck finding a solution

My league is like this, and I did have to go in and edit all the team names back from Bismark to Boston; it took a while to set up (especially logos, because the numbers assigned aren't the same as the logo sets), but it was worth the time for me.
