And set the announcement of the draft pool to only 5 days before the draft. Then, go to Options under League Settings and click "historical players" and "random debut " if you want the latter, otherwise the players will all come from the year you are playing. Then Sim the entire first season through the playoffs with the fictional players. Now go to League Settings and click "Clear Rosters. Then click on the league symbol at the top of the screen and click "League Info" and "All Players." Click tge top of the list to select all and then "actions" and Delete all free agents. " League Settings and "Eliminate all league history." Now sim to the first year players draft and you are ready to go!

Very interesting. When creating a historical game using just the development engine, one can select to have historical players positions and pitchers stamina based on their whole career. This ensures, guys like Ryan and Schilling don't play their entire careers pitching out of the bullpen. Does this method you described allow for that?
