Why do they not bust?
Because they never get rushed.
My avg sp who made the big leagues from that sample is 24 years old.
I had one guy make the big leagues and dominate at age 21 but that was rare.
So if your first round highschool starting pitcher studs aren't developing. They either weren't that good to begin with or were rushed too early.
Also I think why I am having so much success is because I dont draft based on player ratings. I draft based on stats.
I just sort by era for pitchers then draft the best starting pitcher who meets my criteria. They must have atleast 5 in stamina and a low era under 1.

Our league has been going for 13 sim years now and I have to agree. We see more college level SPs bust overtime than high school SPs. The one caveat is that a HS pitcher with limited stats (one or two years) is more likely to bust IMO.
