tldr:can i take a FL team to MLB, and is it automatic?

Hi all!, really new to the game and have a quick question that i cannot seem to find an answer to despite searching for one for ages.
I am using ALL leagues, started unemployed and plan on playing in the rookie leagues with the aim of working my way up (I ended up playing the Tri-City ValleyCats in the Frontier League).

Is it possible to take my team through promotion to the major leagues? and is this automatic at the end of season? I understand that you can set this to manual if you are in commissioner mode but i do not want to use it (challenge mode too with the possibility of being fired for extra fun!).

Also, is it possible to be relegated even lower than the Frontier League? (asking for a friend promise!

I have enabled the automatic promotion/relegation but do not know what leagues to put in the drop downs (set to None currently).

I am coming from Football Manager where i am playing a lower league club with the goal of climbing the leagues.

The problem is all i find are posts and videos of people saying that i need to be in commissioner mode and create fictional leagues, set the promotion/relegation to the correct higher and lower leagues and connect them all.
This seems a bit long winded, i want a game as realistic as i can make it, with real leagues, players and staff only.

I do have the All In One Pack 1.3 and the Complete Universe Facegen pack installed and working, so all real logos and uniforms should be present and correct.

I have completed the in game tutorials and am currently watching the official video tutorials, then i plan on moving on to lets plays to get a better feel for the game.
Sorry for the long, rambling post but it has been bugging me all day, if anyone could confirm for me that would be appreciated!

Thank you for taking the time to read my post and i hope you can clarify for me!
