That being said, I still think a lot of us would be extremely happy if we could simply make use of the minor league player database..

AGREE, esp. the bold lines. i, and a lot of others, admire and appreciate the work Spritze and Big Rod have done for this game.
if the minors can't be fixed so players stay within an organization when the minor teams disappears, then it would be GREAT if we could at least create our own minor leagues to go with the games minors. i don't know how the current system, if it isn't drastically changed in 18, would allow manually created teams to co-exist with the game generated ones. IF that were possible, then when an affiliate vanished, there could be a self created team to absorb those players. That would be a good solution i think.
if not, then possibly, as Mr. Watts said, to have the minor league db work with player generated minors, but i'd like it to go back to 1901 - very personal choice.
it does seem there are choices to be made, and directions that need to be resolved, but a LOT of different ideas are being kicked around in this and the General Discussion post, so i am very hopeful that the minors (even if truly not historical) can be repaired. That and Negro League players are the main draw for me in the game going forward.
