I am playing around with the Regional draft I set it to 2 rounds (in the first year draft section). Then went through all of the MLB teams and set their regional draft setting to by State. (ie. the Chicago team's regional draft is set for Illinois. Detroit is Michigan, etc.)
When you view the draft pool you can set a filter to filter it by Region (one of the choices is "current draft team" so when you are running the draft the filter will be for whatever the currently drafting team's region is. )
The regional pool is set up according to the player's birth city.
In this league I also did an inaugural draft and the first 2 rounds are also Regional drafts. So it looks like the regional draft will work for leagues where we release all the players and draft them to teams.
The first rounds of the draft are regional drafts so in my case the first 2 rounds the teams will only be able to pick from players form their state. after that then they can pick from the main pool.
I am going to assume that any players not drafted in the regional draft will be available in the main draft pool. I will double check that once I complete my draft. (in this league almost all of the teams are the only team in their state so it should be easy to check after 2 rounds to see if any of the California teams not drafted by LA will show up in the draft pool from round 3 onward.
