Haha yeah... I didn't touch anything with the teams in this league (kept all unis/cities/nicknames as they were generated) but I think there's something wrong with my jerseys folder in OOTP 14. I was tinkering with it before I noticed the issue so I certainly did created the issue myself, but never bothered to investigate the issue since I import jersey mods anyway and custom upload each team's for my real leagues... So all the teams' default jerseys look like that now before I change them, if that makes sense

23 of the 38 Top ML hitters (by OPS+) are from Feeders
26 of the 38 Top ML Pitchers (by ERA+) are from Feeders
These numbers are much more like what I am looking for. From this data it looks like OOTP14 produces much better talent from International sources as compared to Feeder Leagues.

This discussion turned quickly! Not that I have an issue with it of course... I think it raises a valid point. As Markus mentioned, some testing may have to be done with the talent finding on "Less" as opposed to "Default" to see if that helps. I didn't use feeder leagues in this test league however, just default randomly generated amateur pools.

All our tests show that this part of the game is working great and as designed  |
I do recall you saying you did hundreds of test leagues so I knew that the default settings wouldn't be creating any loopy results. But it was nice to uncover the differences in importing an OOTP 13 league over as opposed to starting a new league from scratch in OOTP 14, or the potential international amateur talent overload with feeders and default amateur talent settings. I always love seeing this type of discussion unfold, which is what fueled my desire to start this post to begin with, though it did take turns that even I wasn't expecting
