If I can't have an amateur draft at all under that setup, then that "solves" my issue, although if it cannot keep teams properly stocked with a reserve player system, that's another, and potentially huge, problem for me.

So in short, I want no feeders, no minors and no draft. I want new players to just show up year after year, as old players retire, and the reason is because I don't want to bog down my hard drive with 100-200 feeder teams for 100 major league teams, and I don't want to pollute my almanac with details about feeder leagues, minor leagues or amateur drafts. It will (hopefully) make more sense to you once I launch my league live.

You still get an amateur draft without minors. Your reserve roster needs to be stocked, just like minors do.

Of course you do have the option to disable it.
