The developing talent option is an ok thing for the game as long as it can be turned off. But i still maintain that it plays no role in real baseball. The important factor is drafting the right players to develop. Every major league team has a good solid developmental system. There is no measureable difference in how a player develops with the Yankees or the Pirates.
The difference is that the Pirates usually have the edge in the drafting process because they draft higher and in addition the Yankees probably are giving away picks due to FA Comp. NY figures why worry when it has the $ to sign the much surer developed player. But in OOTP i think the Yanks will spend more $ to develop players since they have the $ to spend.

Which is frickin' hilarious when you consider that the Yankees have the better overall system, although the Pirates signings of Heredia and Tailleson probably put their top 3 guys at the top, but after them...
