Thanks for taking the time to reply. A couple follow-up questions and comments:

1. I've read that the AI isn't so great at recommending when to promote or demote players. It take it you find its recommendations reasonable?

2. I've always resisted ghost players on role-playing grounds, but I admit they would reduce micromanagement. Do most people use them? Also, do most people use the default rules on minor league roster size (i.e., no limits)?

3. I looked more closely at the manual on minor-league contracts. Once you put a minor-leaguer on your secondary (40-man) roster, he automatically gets a 1-year minimum major league contract. Yikes, I didn't know that. So the decision to put a guy on the 40-man has some financial consequence, even if it's still a minimal salary ($300,000 or so?).
