Isn't it still 7 levels of minors - AAA, AA, two A teams, Short A, 2 rookie levels?

Also, I started a game with all the minors but one of my rookie teams has only 4 non-pitchers. I don't have ghost players (as planning to do a full feeder system). Will this cause a problem? Will I need to move players around to make sure I have at least 8 non-pitchers in the team, or will it just play pitchers to cover the holes?

Also, I don't know that much about baseball. What is the purpose of Short A? I believe it has a shorter season, but is there a type of player that benefits more from being in a short A team rather than in an A team, or is short A just another minor level below A?
