I think Rule 5 drafts are great. With the caveat that the AI sucks at managing the roster. But if you have teams not under human control, you have deeper problems.
Yes and no. You have human owners running bad teams picking players with high potential but low ratings and having them in the majors for a season when they shouldn't be. This wouldn't happen in real life. No one gets picked in the Rule V draft unless a team thinks they can play in the majors. No team would select someone just to sit them in the majors. It wouldn't happen.
