I tend to Min/Max development. If there is a development budget I like to set it as high as possible. Humans have a much easier time managing finances then the AI. I am not worried about it harming my player salaries.

I want a great scout who is in alignment with how I want to play the team, ability vs tool. As I can change between game files.

Next thing good managers at lower levels. Check their relationship status and try to get their development level to good. Even if it only helps 1% of my chances I'll take it. It takes a long time for this as literally to check each coach might take 12 mouse clicks. Hiring personnel is absolutely awful. If this rating which we can see exists then it should be displayed, searchable and sorted. I try to align hitting and pitching coaches with each team level too.

I might have 100 players on my Prospects list. I want to mange their level and their promotion and not allow the AI to do it. IF my players have the defense rating I want them cross trained at every possible position. Even if they don't become a starter every team needs bench utility guys and you can get something from that trade. Even if its only a 2 star guy but he has + defense at 6 positions.

I evaluate my batters by Woba, OPS+ and WRC+. When they are above average I promote. If they destroyed it I might skip them say go from A- to A+ or AA. Pitchers K/9, BB/9, HR/9 to help evaluate mechanics. and -FIP and ERA+.
