Is there an option to play spring training games?

I was setting up my season -- going to play the 2018 campaign as the Cardinals -- and when it came to spring training games the schedule was blank and it seemed it to want to sim to the season opener.
Is there something I need to click as to while I don't intend to play all the spring training games, I do want to set the lineups and see how they do when it comes down finalizing the last few roster spots?

It's on by default, but it'll only show up after your first season.

I am not 100% sure on this, as I do not really care about spring training, but it seems like I tried setting it up with the March 8 start as 2 weeks and did get a spring training season. That doesn’t do a lot, but you could play around with 1/2/3 weeks and see what shows up.

Could not find a way to generate a spring training.
Disappointing, as I hoped to see how some of the younger players who fought for roster spots in Jupiter this year would do here and see if I would decide on a different roster than what the game does.
Guess, I will have to make my decisions based on my own hunches as the game must start the season based on spring training already have had occurred.
