Quick word of advice on rookies. Someone is going to try to dazzle you with offering some top notch rookies, you know, 4 or 5 stars, for a number one draft choice or a top notch veteran. Be careful because alot of rookies maintain their 5 star status for years but never live up to their potential. If a guy has been in minors for 3 or 4 years and his ratings are still low, the guy is probably going to be a bust, so don't be impressed by the high talent ratings or stars. Also, a guy could have a great minor league career but you still need to take a close look at his contact, power and eye ratings. They might not be sufficient for a major league career.
