Here's the thing, Hank. No matter how many minor league levels and how many prospects each organization has, they are still merely trying to feed into one major league. If you could quintuple the number of talented prospects feeding into your major league, then the bar would be set extremely high and you'd end up washing out the majority of your current major leaguers in 5-7 years.

Further still, keep in mind that the star rating scales with the quality of players in the major league! If you were to add in a bunch of extra 4-5 star players, then everyone else would end up losing stars as a result, since they'd be worth less relative to the overall level of play in the league.

Does that make sense?
