This will fill the team(s) rosters with scrub-level players. They won't be good, but they will occupy space on the field and lineup


As for using the free-agency pool, that can work, if there are enough players available. I find that AI teams are rather slow to attempt to sign players, and also there may be budget concerns. Going to "Act as Manager" of the team (as commish) and making offers to free-agents looking for minor-league contracts helps, but can be tedious if you have a complete set of minor leagues.

Yeah I was thinking of doing this. Just going in to commish mode and signing players that I think are somewhat equal to what the other expansion team got during the expansion draft. I really don't want to fill the team with fictional players but if that's the easiest way I might have to. It's really annoying that this team wasn't allowed to draft anyone in the expansion draft. And they have a full set of minor league teams like the rest of the league, because this is a ML QS game.

I might go in to commish mode and "force trade" one player from every team that matches the criteria (no players with less then 3 years of service time, etc.) to the Tropics so it sort of acts like they participated in the draft.
