Additionally problematic is that the AI tends to react to the current evaluation settings. While I made sure all of the minor were stocked in each position with an Independent League (Fill Minors) one category at a time, the result was a distribution of app. 25 per level. Once the season began, all AI teams made a sudden shift promoting the bulk of the players to AAA and leaving both AA and A with ghost players. I'm thinking this may be a combination of ratings evaluations, AI unseen preferences, and a backhanded way of balancing development and stat production at those levels.

My intent, for my team, is to attempt to keep all positions filled in the minors with 25 on my active and 38-40 on my 40 man.
