This game is so addictive (had it for 1 week now) that I only get 4 hours sleep! Sure beats any of those EA sports games with inflated stats.
I have come across some little annoyances/questions that probably are easy to solve, so please offer any suggestions your have: (I am playing a historical season 1977)

1) In the "Minor League Report" It shows the stats and the recommendations for players at each level, but includes players that I have since demoted or moved up to another level. Is there a way to only show who is at that level?

2) When I generate a photo for the minor leaguers and fictional players, I seem to keep getting the same 4 or 5 faces. Are there any MODs (besides the beard one) to expand the database of faces (Id love to get a few dreadlocked guys or long haired guys or mulletts, etc).

3) Scouting reports dont seem to really tell me whole lot about a player. Is scouting a player simply just another "opinion" of the player's ratings?

4) What can I do from a coaching standpoint to improve my prospect's ratings at a more rapid pace (ie: power, speed, etc)?

5) Why would a minor leaguer who is hitting over .340 with regular playing time in AAA be noted as "Overmatched in AAA"?

6) How much impact does the little icon "in a slump" or "hot" really have? It doesn't seem to matter based on the performances I have seen.

Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.
