I am fairly new to OOTP and I am wondering if something like the following is possible:
*Create a fictional league with 16 made up teams, logos. Uniforms etc
*Hold a draft with the real MLB players from say 1903
*Can players then age in 1904, 1905 and so on and get better/worse similar to how they did in real life?
*Will players who joined MLB each year join the league pool? So that when I get to Babe Ruths first season (1915? Cant remember) for the Red Sox he will be drafted/signed by one of my fictional teams?
*Finally, if all this were possible, can I expand the league to 20 teams, 26 teams, 30 teams and so on as I get to the 1960s and the real MLB player pool expands?

Honestly I have no idea if this is possible or if thus is how it works but it would be very cool if it is.
