If the prospects aren't getting any PT at one level you might as well promote them. Being promoted early won't hurt them any more than sitting idle. If neither option appeals to you, just cut 'em.

As far as drafting age, I never draft anyone older than 20 who doesn't already have >0 rating in the applicable skill (for pitchers avoiding runs, for hitters getting hits) because that typically means they'll never develop great ratings, even if their talents are high... a 23-year old SP with BRILLIANT in avoiding runs but a 0 rating is very likely not to develop into his full potential (from what I've seen).
