The players who played in the minors in the game beginning year and aren't available unless full history is selected are consequential. Without them there may be a shortage of players to fill in for injuries. For example, if a team had no SS injuries and didn't need to call one up for a time from the minors, the OOTP team will not have a minor league SS available to call up.
For my current start 1951 save I imported full history then deleted history which left the FA players. I think there were about 70. Then I assigned them to the appropriate organizations which was usually easy to determine, the exception being players who played for independent minor leagues.
