This actually mirrors real life. Teams "sign" a lot of international players to play in development complexes in Latin countries (some complexes are jointly affiliated among multiple teams), and we never hear about those guys unless we read every bit of news about our favorite team. Some of these players are brought to those complexes at very young ages and never develop into worthwhile minor leaguers. So all those international complex guys that we have who are all 20s in every rating (on 20-80) at ages 18-20 are unfortunately realistic players.
