Where oh where did my rookie league go

Howdy,I'm having fun with version 15 of OOTP, lots of nice things going on in the game.

My problem, I have tried setting up turn of the century historical leagues utilizing only a Double A and a Rookie league, kinda like having town ball and company ball teams to feed the majors.

The Majors and the Double A are fine, but the Rookie league always ends up with two hitters and a whole passel of pitchers.

I've tried at 1871 and 1901 with the same issue after several tries.

Any thoughts on solving the issue will be appreciated.

Easiest solution is the play with ghost players for minors, otherwise the next easiest solution would be to generate free agents every offseason for teams to fill up with.

Another question is do you have a first year player draft or not?

I added AAA....AA...A and it is working.
I did have a ML draft for the 1871 season and filled the minors with fantasy players.
fun stuff, thanks

Make sure you put age limits in there, or you'll see 30+ year olds in A
